tnrb  the  Senator,  but  -would  see  him  to-day. 
'-_Gov.  Odell. and  his  party  left  MaVihattan 
• .  Bieach  and  went  to  the  Fifth  Avenue  Hotel, 

-  Where  miarters  had  been  .  secured.  They 
'Till  le^ve  Long  Island  City  on  a  special

Wew  Tork,  ,wHl  see  Senator  Piatt,  and  will 
tken  go  to  Lake  Mohonk  -to  rejoin  bte 

,  Jamlly. 

Talking  with  a  New  Tokk  Times  report- 
er. Gov.  Odell  said: 

".We  have  had  a  pretty  long  trip,  hav- 
ing been  on  the  road  seventeen  days.  We 
-  have  traveled  nearly  2,000  miles  and  hatve 
^  Inspected  more  than  forty  institutions.  1 
am-  not  going  to  Say  anything  at  thisrtlme 
■  -about  the  inspections  made.    I  shall  re- 
serve all  that  for  my  next  message  to  the 
Legislature.  ,« 

"We  also  inspected  the  sights  ait  Rav 
Brook,  Clear  Lake,  and  Danuemora  which 
have  been  suggested  for  the  proposed 
tuberculosis  hoApltal.  No  objectToh  wag 
made,  as  that  matter  is  In  the  hands  of  a 
commlssloi)  which  will  report  to  a  board 
composed  of  Senator  Ellsworth,  Speaker 
Kixoft,  and'  myself." 

^Aed  whether  he  had  discussed  .the  May-^ 
entity  question  with  Senator  Piatt,  the 
,   Govomor  replied: 

••  I  only  had  a  few  words  with  the  Sena' 
tor.  and  nothing  was  said  abottt  itoHilcs.  I 
6M  expect  to  see  the  Senator  again  after 
dtmier,  but  when  we  returned  to  the  Orien- 
t£T-Tie  had  retired  for  the  night.  He  sent 
word  to  me  to  come  to  his  room,  but  I  de- 
etded  not  to  disturb  him,  and  will  see  him 
to-nuorrow." 

"  Have -you  done  anything  yet  with  regard 
to  fhe  appointment  of  a  successor  to  the 
late  Adjutant  General  E.  M.  Hoffman?" 

"  No,"  replied  Gov.  Odell,  "  nor  will  I  for 
some  time  to  come." 

When  Speaker  Nixon  was  asked  how  it 
■was  that  Senator  Piatt  and  Gov.  X>dell  had 
not  had  a  conference  at  the  Oriental  he 
said:        •  .  : 

"When  we  reached  the  hotel  there  was 
a  bunch  of  people  with  the  Senator.  So 
■we  went  to  the  Manhattan  Hotel.  'When 
we  returned  to  the  Oriental  the  Senator  had 
retired." 

Politicians  at  the  beach  who  noticed  the 
events  as  they  transpired,  expressfed  the 
opinion  that  the  gubernatorial  party  did 
not  appreciate  the  reception  accorded  them 
at  the  Oriental,  and  resented  it  by  going  to 
the  Manhattan  for  dinner,  and  remaining 
there  until  such  a  time  that  assured  them 
that  on  Uw^eturn  to  the  Oriental  the  Sena- 
tor wo^d  be  In.  bed.

AMERICANS  ALLEGE 

MEgCAN  OUTRAGE. 

Unprotected  Women  :Arrested  for  De- 
.fending  TlySr  Home. 

Special  to  The  ff^  York  Times. 

AUSTIN,  Texas,  July  31*.— According  to 
the  story  told  by  some  Americans  who  are 
returning  to  their  homes  in/  Cincinnati, 
Ohio^  they  underwent  'a  severe  ordeal  In 
Mexico.  The  Americana  areXMrs.  J.  J. 
Kauffman,  wife  of  the  manager  of  the  gold 
mines  of  W.  A.  Perry  at  S^tos  Varones, 
State  o^  Guerrero,  Mexico ;  Mr«.  McLaugh- 
lin, mother  of  Mrs.  Perry,  and  John  Perry. 

They  say  that  at  night,  about  two  weeks 
ago,  Mrs.  Perry  and  her  mother  were  In 
their  home  at  Santos  Varonesr  when  an 
attack  was  made  on  the  place  by  bi^igands. 
Mrs.  Perry  shot  and  fatally  wounded  one 
of  the  Mexican  outlaws,  who  tried  to  force 
an  entrance  to  the  hfcuse.  The  news  quickly 
spread,  and  the  comAiandaht  -of  the  district 
soon  arrived  with  a  posse  of  soldiers,  sur- 
rounded the  house,  and  commanded  the 
two  women.  to  surrender.  W.  A.  Perry,  his 
son  John,  and  T.  J.  Arthur,  an  American 
mining  man,  who  had  Just  arrived -at  the 
place,  were  placed  under  arrest  with  the 
women.  The  following  day  they  were  moved 
forward  to  TetlpAc,  where  they  asked  per- 
mission to  communicate  with  the  City  Judge 
at  Tasco;  but  the  privilege  was  denied 
them. 

When  the  Judge  and  his  secretary  had 
gone  to  dinner  they  prevailed  upon  the 
guard  to  allow  them  the  use  of  the  tele- 
phone. 

Immediately  upon  being  informed  of  their 
pre'dicament,  the  City  Judge  ordered  the 
rele'a.se  of  the  prisoners  and  the  arrest  of 
the  commandant,  whu,  it  Is  charged,  had 
heaped  Indignities  on  his  prisoners.  >Iessrs. 
Perry  and  Arthur  returned  at  once  to  their 
capip  and  took  their  families  to  Tasco,  the 
home  of  the  City  Judge,  where  Mrs.  Kauff- 
man remained  to  make  her  declaration  be- 
fore the  court. 

Action  In  the  matter  was  delayed  by  the 
Judge  at  Tetlpac,  who.  It  Is  alleged,  failed 
to  promptly  forward  the  report  of  the  af- 
fair. After  several  days,  Messrs.  Perry  and 
Arthur  obtained  the  assistance  of  higher 
officials  In  liberating  the  women.  Upon  be- 
ing advised  of  the  affair.  Gov.  Mora  wired 
instructions  for  ai  thorough  investigation. 

Mrs.  Kauffman  was  allowed  to  leave  after 
making  her  statement,  and  the  other  pris- 
oners were  also  released. 


CANADA  AND  RECIPROCITY. 


Montreal    Paper   Says-  the  Dominion 
Does  Not  Want  an  Arrangement 
with  the  U^ed  States. 

.  Spefial  to  The  flew  York  Times. 

MONTREAL,  July'-  31.— The  Montreal 
Star  devotes"  a  Wng  editorial  to  replying  to 
the  editorial  In  The  N^w  Yobk  Times  of 
July"  29,  entitled  "A  Neglected  Field." 

The  Star  refers  .to  the  campaign  con- 
ducted In  favor  of  unrestrjiatetf  reciprocity 
by  the  Liberals  In  l^*r"whlch  resulted  In 
their  defeat,  and  savjs  It  Is  burled  as  a  ral- 
lying cry  Jiist  as-^tKoroughly  as  is  the  sli- 
ver question  in  the  United  States. 

In  regard  to  that  portion  of  the  article 
dealing  with  the  transfer  of  American 
Industrie^  across  t|te  Canadian  border,  The 
Star  says  Canada  Is  familiar  with  that 
argument.  ,r  -0  -adds,  that  the  union  of  the 
spider  an^t  'he  fly  de\'ero'ped.  the  energies 
and  industries  of  both  parties. 

"  Canada,"  the  paper  says,  "  has  resolved 
ilrmly  upon  the  policy  of  developing  her 
home  industries.  Whatever  party  is  in 
power  will  be  obliged  to  recognize  this  as 
the  wish  of  those  who  think  on  such  sub- 
jects and  Influence  people  who  do  not.  We 
have  already  done  too  much  to  build  up  the 
industries  and  advance  the -prosperity  of 
our  neighbors.  We  buy  too  much  from 
them,  and  sell  them  too, little,  but  there  is 
grave  danger -that  in  any  new  deal  our  lot 
may  become  worse  Instead  of  better. 

"  The  hope,  the  ambition,  the  dream  of 
patriotic  Canadians  Is  to  qee  Canada  a 
country  filled  with  an  industrious,  pros- 
perous pop-alatlon,-  developing  her  marvel- 
ous natural  resources,  selling  the  world  her 
finished  product,  and  not  the  raw  material 
to  be  used  hi  furnislinng  skilled  labor  with 
means  of  livelihood  in  foreign  countries.

Special  to  The  New  York  Times. 

PORT  JERVIS,,  N.  T.,  July  31.— Dr,  Stan-

the  Misses  Lillian  and  Jeanette  Mott  of  Mil-

taining a  fracture  of  the  skuH. 

■The  party  had  gone  oilt  for  a  drive  early 
In  the  -evening.  On  the  way  home  Miss 
Lillian  was  driving,  and  while  descend- 
ing a  steep  hUl  a  mile'  from  Mllford  the 
team  became  frightened  and  ran  away. 
When  they  reached  the  bridge  that  spans 
the  Sawkill  Brook  at  the  outsltirts  of  the

cipitating the  vehicle  and  Its  occupants  ten

CHICAGO,  July  31.— The  Baltimore  and 
Ohio  New  York  and  Washington  passenger 
vestibuled  limited  train  from  the  East, 
which  was  due  to  arrive  In  the  Grand  Cen- 
tral Station,  Chicago,  at  9  o'clock  to-night, 
was  stopped  by  five  masked  men  8 
o'clock  -b^ween  Edgemore  and  Grand  Cal- 
umet HSfehts,  Ind.,  thirty-one  miles  out^ 
from  Chicago.  One  of  the  mall  cars  which 
contained  no  money  was  bloVn  up  wHh 
dynamite  and  wrecked.  The  attempt  at 
robbery  was  made  after  the  two  mail  cars 
had  been  detached-  from  the  train  and  run  a 
quarter  of  a  mile  ahead. 

The  failure  of  the  robbers  to  make  a 
rich  haul  was  due  to  the  fact  that  the 
express  car  which  contained  the  train's 
treasure  was  in  an  unusual  place.  It  was 
the  third  car  in  the  train.  After,  wrecking 
the  mall  car  and  obtaining  no- booty,  the 
robbers  disappeared  in  the  darkness.  The 
only  loot  that  they  carried  away  was  the 
gold  watch  of  the  engineer.  Most  of  the 
trainmen  were  shot  at,  but  nojle  was  In 
Jurcd  either  by  the,  dynamite  or  'firearms. 

The  train  was  running  at  high  speed  as 
It  passed  Calumet  Heights,  and  Immediate- 
ly after  passing  out  of  sight  of  the  sta- 
tion Engineer  J.  W.  Collins  saw  dlrectlj' 
in  front  of  his  engine  a  large  fire  on  which 
some  rails,  had  bee'i)'  placed.  He  slowed 
down,  and- agjie  did  so  three  men  wearing 
masks  jj)<lfp^d  into'  the  cab,  and  covered 
Collins  and  his  fireman,  James  Whipple, 
with  revolvers.  Just  before  climbing  into 
the  cab  the  three  men  discharged  their  re 
volvers.  The  shots  caused  a  panic  in  the 
sleeping  cars,  where  the  passengers  made 
every  effort  to  hide  their  money  and  i-al 
uables  before  the  robbers  could  get  at 
them.  No  attempt  was  made,  however,  to 
rbb^ny  of  the  passengers. 

After  mounting  the  cab  .of-  the  engine, 
the  robbers,  covering  the  engineer  and  fire- 
man with  their  revolvers,  made  them  step 
down,  and  go  back  the  length  of  two  cars. 
They  ordered  the  men  to  uncouple  the  first 
two  carsj  which  was  done.  They  then  hus- 
tled the  two  trainmfen  back  l;ito  the  cab, 
and  still  keeping  the  engineer  covered  with 
revolvers,,  directed  him  to  pull  up  some  dis- 
tance from  the  rest  of  the  train. 

Collins  ran  up  aOO  feet  and  was  then  di- 
rected to  stop.  He  did  so,  and  while  one  of 
the  men  remained  to  guard  him,  the  others 
Jumped  off,  and,  hurling  dynamite  at  the 
door  of  the  car  *hich  they  Judged  to  be  the 
express  car,  burst  opeii  the  door.  Hastily 
climbing  In  to  get  the  safe,  they  were  as- 
tonished to  find  that  they  had  broken 
open  a  mail  car. 

They  threatened  the  engineer  with  death 
for  not  telling  them  that  the  cars  which  he 
had,  uncoupled  were  not  express  cars,  and 
ordered  him  to  return  at  once  and  uncouple 
the  next  car  behind  the  l^aggage  cars. 
Climbing  once  more  ihto  his  cab,  Collins 
backed  his  engine  down,  coupled  onto  the 
third,  car,  which  the  fireman  was  made  to 
uncouple  at  the  rear  end,  and  still  with  the 
muBale  of  the  revolver  at  his  head,  Col- 
lins was  ordered  to  run  down  the  track  as 
before.  He  drew  away  from  the"  remainder 
of  the  train  about  the  same  distance  as  on- 
the  first  occasion,  and  the  robbers,  still 
leaving  him  ^  under  the  charge  of  one  of 
their  number,  made  for  this  car.  When 
they  reached  It  they  found,  to  their  wrath, 
that  they  had  attacked  another  mall  car. 
and  that  It  contained  no  money. 

The  train  had  been  delayed  now  fully 
thirty  minutes,  and  fearing  that  If  they 
delayed  it  any  longer,  help  would  be  com- 
ing to  the  train,  crew,,  the  robbers  gave  up 
their  attempt  and  disappeared  In  a  thicket 
of  scrub  oaks  at  the  side  of  the  track. 

The  train  was  hastily  made  up  and  came 
on  to  Chicago,  arriving  herg  late,  a  stop 
having  been  made  at  ■Whiting  to  report  the 
robbery.  Policemen  were  at  once  sent 
after  the  robbers,  and  Vithln  an  hour  after 


trail 

F.  A.  Applegate  of  Newark,  Ohio,  was 
the  express  messenger  and  was  alone  in 
his  car.  He  had  no  idea  that  a  robbery  was 
being  attempted  until  he  heard  the  shoot- 
ing on  the  outside.  He  then  seized  a  rifle, 
and  climbing  on  the  top  of  the  safe 
awaited  developments,  determined  to  make 
the  best  fight  in  his  power.  He  was  not 
molested  In  any  way.  He  said  that  thtre 
was  considerable  gold  and  silver  in  fhe 
car,  and  that  the  robbers  might  have  se- 
cured a  rich' booty  If  they  had  come  to  the 
right  place. 

"I  had  no  Idea  of  what  I  was, going  fo 
do,"  said  Appelgate.  "  except  that  I  had 
made  up  my  mind  that  there  was  going  to 
be  a  fight,  and.  that  I  was  going  to  do  the 
best  I  could."         *  ^ 

Local  express  officials  refused  to  say  to- 
night how  much  money  there  was  In  the 
car. 

It  Is  estimated  that  $.')0.000  was  stored  In 
the  express  car.  and  It  is  believed  the  rob- 
bers knew  of  the  large  amount  of-  money 
and  valuables  aboard.

AMERICANS  WANT  LEASE 

_       OF  A  BRITISH  RAILWAY. 

Offer  to  Guarantee  Dividends  to^  South 
Eastern  Road  Shareholders  —  The 
Line  Now  Running  at  a  Loss. 

LONDON.  Aug.  1.— Mr. ,  Lander,  a  sharei- 
hblder  of  some  magnitude  in  the  South 
Eastern  Railway,  announced  at  the  half- 
yearly  meeting  yesterday  that  an  Ameri- 
can syndicate  desired  a  forty-year  lease  of 
the  line,  and  was  ready  to  deposit  £1,000,000 
as  a  .guarantee  of  a  3  per  cent,  dividend 
during  the  first  year  and  ultimately  a  5  per 
cent,  dividend. 

This  statement  was  made  after  the  Chair- 
man of  the .  company,  Henry  Cosmo  O. 
Bonsor,  had  reported  that  no  dividend 
could  be  paid  this  year,  that  the  accounts 
showed  a  deficiency,  and  that  It  was  neces- 
sary to  Issue. additional  stock  to  the  amount 
of  £1,668,000.. 

This  Issue^  was  authorized,  Mr.  Lander 
caustically  commenting  upon  a  state  of  af- 
fairs showing  no  dividend  after  sixty-five 
years  of  working. 

Although  nothing  was  done  with  refer- 
ence to  the  proposal  announced  by  Mr. 
lender,  the  latter,  after  the  meeting,  tpld 
a  representative  of  The  Daily  Mall  that  the 
last  had  not  been  heard  of  It. 


The  South  Eastern  Road  has  now  608 
miles  In  pperatlon;  Its  London  termini  are 
Charing  Cross,  Cannon  Street,  Victoria  and 
London  Bridge.  Trains  runs,  to  Thnbridge 
Wells,  Dorking,  Guildford,  Reading,  Can- 
terbury, Ramsgate,'  Margate,  Dover,  arid 
other  points  south  of  London  and  on  the 
south  coast.  ... 

The  road  operates  a  fast  service  Jo  the 
Continent,  via  Dover  and  Calais. 


Low  Freight  from  Canada  t<^la«gow. 

Special  to  The  New  York  Ti 
MONTREAL,  Quebec,  July  "Sl.-^Ocean 
freights  from  Montreal  aire  abnormally  low 
at  the  present  time,  corn  having  been  car- 
ried to  Glasgow  as  low  as  6d.  per  quarter. 
Thfr  rates  to  London  and  Liverpool  from 
the  St.  Lawrence  ar.e  also  depressed.  Th( 
dullness  Is  attributed  to  the  effects  of  thf 
drought  in  the  West,  which  has  canst 
corn  to  advance  In  price  with  the  resul't 
that  English  buyers  are  holding  off  for  a 
break  In  prices.  The  scarcity  of  orders  is 
causing  many*  ships  to  leave  the  St.  Law- 
rence light.  Rates  generally  are  about  $0 
per  cent,  lower  than  last  year.  .»

COLUMBUS,  Ohio.  July  31.^  The  Pro- 
gressive Democratic  Party  "  was  organised 
here  to-day.  Tl*  attendance  was  sd  small 
that  many  doubted  at  first  whether  any 
-attempt  would  be.  piade  to  bold  a  State 
convention.      ■•'         .  ■ 

The.  week  following:  ^i^the  recent  Demo- 
cratic State  Convention 'a  conference  was 
held  at  Cleveland,  protesting  against  tl^e 
■platform  adopted  by  that  convention, 
which  Ignored  Bryan,  free  silver,  and  other 
Issues,  and  which  did  not  reaffirm  either 
of  the  National  platforms  on  which  Bryan 
made  his  runs  for  the  Presidency.  At  that 
conference  a  call  was  Issued  for  a  State 
convention  .  of  "  Bryan  Democrats  "  and 
qthers  opposed  to  the  Democratic  and  Re-r 
rihbllcan  State  platforms  to  meet  here  to- 
day. Fewer  than  a  dozen  men  responded 
to  the  call,  and  to-i^ay  attended  'the 
launching  of  the  new  party. 
,  Gieorge  A.  Groat,  who  called  the  confer-, 
'ence  at  Cleveland  and  presided  over  it  on 
July  17,  was  Temporary  and  Permanent 
Chairman  to-day,  and  was  made  Chairman 
of  the  State  Committee  o^  the  new  party. 
His  name  was'  presented  lor  Governor,  but 
he  said  he  did  not  want  any  office.  He 
was  afterward  put  on  the  ticket  for  Su- 
preme Court  Judge,  but  he  declined  to  ac- 
cept the  nomination.  The  convention  'Sfas

headed  by  Henry  Leonard  oC^san  and  Inr 
eluding  Hiram  Tanning,  ^  'W.  P.  Bates, 
George  Guthrie,  and  two  men  from 
New- Lexington,  reported  to-night  that  they 
had  come  to  the  city  to  attend  the  conven- 
tion, and  being  unable  to  find  It  they  went 
to  the  races.  Even  th^  promoters  of  the 
movement  did  not  disguiise  their  disappoint- 
ment at  the  small  attendance.  At  the  con- 
clusion of  the  proceedlngfs.a  -vote  ef  thanks 
was  givfeh  to  the  -reporter's;  and  they  re- 
turned the  compliment  to  tjie  minority. 

It  was  announced  that  the  platform  sent 
out  from  Cleveland  on  July  H  In  circulars 
arid  published  at  the  time  ha^  already  bfe%n 
adopted  on  the  referendum  system  by  many 
subscribing  to  the  sa'me.  The' features  of 
the  platform  were  the  following: 

The  laudation  of  Bryan  and  the  reaf- 
firmation of  the  Kansas  City  platform.' 
Planks  were  also  Inserted- calfhig  for  the 
public  ownership  of  all  public  ut)irae#;  trait 
all  money  of  whatever  kind  shall  bp'  issued

ent of  all  trusts,"  shall-  be  destroyed,  for 
"  without  a  money  aristocracy-  'there  can

approve  a  gold  standard  and  who  supported 
McKlnley  for  President  are  told  henceforth 
to  affnfate  with  the  Republican  Party. 

On  retunring-  thanks  for  JUs  election  as

reforms  had  sprung  from  humble  begin- 
nings, and  he  was  glad  to  know  that  there

Democratic  P  ^rty,"  ''The  Independent 
Party,"  and  "  The  Reform  Party." 

Harmony  "prevailed-  throughout  the  pro- 
ceedings till  came  to  the  selection  of  a 
name.  J.  W.  Lindsay,. who  last  night,  with 
three  Populists,  met  In  the  State  confer- 
ence, wanted  to  call  the  organization  "  The 
Independent  Party,"  so  as  to  include  all 
"  who  were  opposed  to  Hannalsm."  He  In- 
sisted that  the  Democratic  State  Conven- 
tion in  Ohio  "had  veered  around  Into 
Hanna's  lines." 

When  Chairman  Groot  announced  that 
the  convention  had  voted  to  name  the  or- 

fanlzatlon  "  i;he  Progressive  Democratic 
'arty,"  Lindsay  said  he  would  not  co-oper- 
ate any  further.  Lindsay  wanted  the 
Populists  last  night  and  the  Progressive- 
Democrats  to  support  Mayor  Jones  of  To- 
ledo for  Governor  on  Independent  lines. 

A  State  Executive  Committee  of  nine 
members  was  selected,  with  George  A. 
Groot  as  Chairman  and  Bernard  Hubert  as 
Secretary,  and  this  coriimlttee  spent  the 
evening  In  Mr.  Groot's  room  jjr  In-the 
eleeatotirrangingTor  campaign  work. 

It  Is  customary  for  conventions  in  Ohio 
to  authorize  their  State  Committees  to  fill 
vacancies,  but  this  was  not  done  to-dav. 
After  Chairman  Groot  %nd  others  left  to- 
night Dr.  Reemelin  positively  declined  .the 
nomination,  for  Governor,  and  It  was  re- 
ported that  the  others  would  not' accept.

PoH.ce  Captain  Thomas  J.  Diamond  of  the 
East  Fifth  Street  St'atlonj  taking  the  wit- 
ness stand  In  behalf  of  his  precinct. detec- 
tive, George'  Blssert,  charged  wif  h  bribery; 
last  night  In  Recorder  Goff's  court  In  Gen- 
eral Sessions,  engaged  in  one  of  the  most 
Interesting  verbal  fencing  matches  ever 
heard  In  the  Court  of  General  Sessions. 

The  Captain,  In  an  earnest,  emphatic 
manner,  told  the  ^u^y  under  Bissert's  law- 
yer's skillful  questioning,  how  well  his 
detective,  Blssert,  watched  the  disorderly 
house  at  27  Stuyvesant  Street,  and  how 
they  were  unable  to  close  the  place  up  un- 
til six  or  eight  months  after  complaints' 
had  been  made  against  the  hous^.  He  was 
also  on  the'- stand  In  the  afternoon,  and 
hip  story  told  there  evidently  Impressed  the 
jury. 

■When  court  reconvened  at  8  o'clock  In  the 
evening,  the  Captain,  in  full  uniform,  tight- 
ly buttoned,  and  clutching  a  fan  in  his 
right  han.d,  again  took  the  stand  to  under- 
go the  crosp-examlnation  of  Assistant  Disr 
trict  .A^ttorney  Osborne.  Capt.  Diamond 
wore  a  confident  smile  and  began  his  a/i- 
swers"  In  a  self-possessed  yplce.  Shortly 
thereafter  tKings  beg^n  to  get  warm  and 
the  Captain  began /<o  mop  his  forehead. 
When  his  two  hours^ross-examination  was 
concluded  his  collar  and  cuffs  were  wilted 


degrees  redder. 

The  Recorder  at  one  time  was  con.strained 
to  say  that  he  would  not  permit  the  cross- 
examination  to  descend  into  a  personal 
wrangle  between  the  District  Attorney  and 
the  witness.  •»  ■ 

Blssert  went  upon  the  stand,  as  did  three 
of  his  brother  officers,  and  denied  all  of 
the  charges  of  Lena  Schmitt,  the  Stuyves- 
ant Street  disorderly  house  keeper,  arid 
stood_-wall  the  terrific  cross-examination 
01  AssistalU  District  .Attorney  Osborne. 

LAWYERff^AND    RECORDER  WRAN- 
GLE. 


The  day's  session  was  marked  by  fre- 
quent wrangles  between  Lawyer  LeVy  for 
the  defense,  and  Assistant  District  Attor- 
ney Obborne,  and  by  several  wordy  en- 
counters between  Messrs.  Levy,  Unger, 
Vorhaus  for  the  defense  and  the  Court. 
Recorder  Goff  on  several  occasions  direct- 
ed Mr.  Levy  to  take  his  seat. 

Lawyer  Vdrhaus,  after  the  State  closed, 
made  several  motions  to  dismiss  the  Indict- 
ment and  to  acquit  the  prisoner.  All  we^e 
denied.  Mr.  Vorhaus  then  opened  the  de- 
fense and  said  that  it  bad  been  c<ftisldered 
seriously  by  the  defense  not  to^ut  in  any 
testimony,  but  simply  to  let  the  cas'e  go 
to  the  Jury  upon  the  State's  evidence. 

Blssert  on  the  stand  denied  that  he  had 
ever  received  any  money  from  the  Schmitt 
woman.  He  declared  that  he  had  .chased 
the  girls  out  of  the  place  nearly  every 
week  and  had  finally  raided  the  place  in 
Hay,  when  two  citizens  got  the  evidence 
for  him,  ,  He  denied  that  he  was  in  the 
house  on  the  morning  of  Christmas  Day 
last  year.  On  cross-examination  he  ad- 
mitted that  he  had  never  arrested,  any  one 
:-l-of  the  -women  in  the  house  or  Lena 
Schmitt,  or  made  a  cnarge  against  the  lat- 
ter.  He  -couldn't  remember,  ne  said,  when 
It  became  a  "  parlor  ''  house. 

"How  long  did  you  think  it  would  take 
"you  to  break  up  this  house  by  driving  the 
girls  away,  when  they  came  back  in  half 
an  hour?    asked  Mr.  Osborne.  v 

"That  wasn't-  my  fault.  I  had  other 
things  to  do.  I'  couldn't  stay  there  r  all 
night."        ,  7  - 

Sr.  Osborne  asked  if  Blssert  did  not  know 
of  the  character  of  the  house  in  November 
of  last  year.  Mr.  Unger  said  at  that  time 
Blssert  was  In  a  murder  case  before  Mr. 
Osborne.  Mr.  Osborne  then'  declared  that 
the  State,  In  important  murder  cases,  had  to 
depend'  upon  the  testimony  of  policemen 
who  were  allied  with  the  houses  .»f  prosti- 
tution.

Its    Anthor,  Says    It    Is    Not  Aimed 
Asalnst  All  Trnst-Made  Gooas. 

Special  to  The  New  York  Times.  \ 
MIL'W'ATJKEE,  July  31-.— A  letter  I  has 
been  received  here  from  Congressman  J. 
W.  Babcock,  in  which  he  defends  his  Tariff 
bill.  He  admits  his  bill  is  crude  In  some 
particular^,  but  says  It  could  be  amended 
In  committee.  He  says: 

'  Those  -who  have  attacked  my  proposi- 
tion assume  that  I  want  to  have  the  tariff 
removed  from  all  trust-made  goods.  This  is 
not  so.-  The  theory  of  Republican  protec- 
tion has  been  to  protect  labor  and  mate-i 
rial.  We  are  now  producing  some  articles 
at  a  less  cost  than  any  other  nation. 

'  After  many  of  these  Industries  have  be- 
come giants  such  as  fhe  world  has-  never 
before  known,  shall  we  CQntlnue  a  tariff  on 
articles  that  yield  no  revenue,  need  no  pro- 
tection, and  that.  In  fact,  like  the  produce 
on  our  farms. -are  articles  of  export?  If 
Congress  maintains  a  tariff  on  such  article^ 
the  whole  theory  of  protection  falls  to  the  ' 
ground,  and  It  simply  Inures  to  the  benefit 
of  those  who  may  secure  the  control  of  any 
such  commodity. 

"  I  maintain  that  it  Is  a  part  of  the  policy 
of  protection  to-  protect  the  consumers.  I, 
would  not  touch  a  schedule  where  the  tariff 
was  needed  to  protect  labor."  .

across  the  Swiss-Italian  frontier  of  girls

"  Yes.  I  knew  my  men  would  arrest  the

Mr.  Osbbrne  showed  that  tl^e.re  was  en- 
tsBed  in/the  complaint  book  of  the^Cap- 
tiliKs  p/eclnct  one  complaint.  In  October, 
1900,  and  onie  in  May,  1901.  ■ 

"  Did  you  believe  the  laws  were  being 
violated  In  the  place  in  November,  1900?  "  , 
•"  Yes,  but  couldn't  prove  It." 
"  You  didn't  report  It?  " 
.  "  Not  tin  I  got  evidence." 
"  But  you  reported  others?  " 
"They  must  have  been  'conHrtued  from 
my  predecessor."  -  > 

"  Your  suspicion  was  so  strong  that  It 
was  disorderly  that  yoii  put  a  man  In  front 
of  It,  yet  you  didn't  report  It?  "  - 

"  I  hadn't  made  the  proper  arrests  in  the 
house."  '  ■ 

"  Any  other  persons  in  your  precinct  so 
persistent  as  Lena  Schmitt." 
"  I  don't  recall." 

Mr.  Osborne  showed  from  the  Captain's 
reports  that  the  place  First- Street  had 
been  reported  as  V  suspicious "  ever  since 
September,  1900,  and  as  late -as  June  24, 
1001. 

"You' never  thought  It  necessary  to  put 
an  officer  In  front  of  that  door?  "  asked 
Mr.  Osborne. 

"  No  complaints  against  that."  . 

"  You  had  more  complaints  against  27 
Stuyvesant  Street  tlian  any  other  place  In 
the  precinct,  and  yet  vou  didn't  report  It 
and  did  report  the  others?  " 

"  I  didn't  have  any  evidence  against  it." 
said  the  Captain  in  "his  deep  voice.  "I'd 
keep  on  reporting  them  f ere ver  till  I  run 
them  out." 

The  Captain  was  keeping  his  temper-well. 
Tn  fact,  he  kept.lt  all  during  the  ordeal  of 
cross-examination.  "Mr.  Osborne  reminded 
hint  that  on  each  of  his  disorderly-house 
reports,  from  which  27  Stuyvesant  Street 
was  missing,  there  was  this  entry:  ",There 
are  no  other  suspicious  places  in  the  pre- 
cinct other  than  those  menttoneit'.' 

"  Don't  you  conslde'r  a  furnrshed-room 
house  full  of  dissolute  women  a  disorderly 
house?  "  Inquired  the  Prosecutor.  '. 

"  Not  under  the  law  uTiless  y.ou  can  show 
responsibility."  replied  fhe  Captain  readily. 

"  A  good  jury  lawyer  vlas  lost  when  he 
became  a  police  captain."  observed  a  high 
official  of  the  Dlstrltt  Attorney's  office  to 
Mr.  Gans  at  this  answer. 
'  "  Didn't  you  believe  the  Schmitt  woman 
kept  a  disorderly  blouse?  " 

"  Yes.  But  I  couldn't  get  evidence  that 
would  hold  In  court.j' 

"  Did  you  receive  any  communication 
from  the  Police  Department,  from  the  Com- 
mittee of  Five,  about  this  place?" 

"  I  don't-  recall." 

"  Did  you  receive  a  letter  from  the  Dis- 
trict Attorney  about  the  house?  " 

"  I  receive  so  many  - letters  from  the  Dis- 
trict Attorney  recently  that  It  takes  nearly 
all  my  time  thinking  up«  answers." 

Mr.  Osborne  closed  at  this  point,  and  the 
defense  rested  after  asking  Capt.  Dia- 
mond if  he  did  not  have  to  have  the  testi- 
mony f)f  one  policeman  In  such  cases  cor- 
roborated before  the  Magistratp  would  hold 
the-prisoner.  Mr.  Levy  was  willing'  to  sub- 
mit the  case  to  the  jury  without  argument 
of  counsel.  Mr.  Osborne  wouldn't  conslder 
such  a  proposition. 

-  The  jurors,  all  of  whom  comolained  of 
the  uncomfortable  night  they  had  spent 
night  before  last  when  kept  together,  were 
again  locked  up  last  night.  The  Recorder 
wished  them  a  pleasanter  evening  than  the 
former  one.  ,

THE  STAND. 
Capt  Diamond  went  on  the  stand %p  th.e 


late  afternoon.  Court  had  opened  af  9:40 
o'clock.  It  adjourned  at  10  o'clock  in  the 
evening.  He  testified  on  direct  examination 
that.lfe  had  about  seventy-five  policemen  to 
police  a  precinct  with  a  population  of  about 
150,000.  He  said  that  he  had  established  a 
specliil  post  in  the  vicinity  of  Lena 
Schmltt's  house  upon  Bissert's  suggestion. 
Ofte  day  he  saw  an  arm  beckon  from  the 
window  and  went  In  himself  and  told  the 
woman  he  would  send  her  to  State  prison 
If  she  did  not  stop  it.  He  told  of  arresting 
the  Schmitt  woman  three  times  In  May  and 
June  of  this  year. 

Mr.  O.'borne  began  his  cross-examination 
Imniedlatei.v  after  the  jury  returned  ifrom- 
dlnher  at  the  Astor  House. 

"  Did  you  say.  you  never  heard  of  a 
'  wardman,'  Captain?-"  he  asked  gracious- 
ly- 

"  Only  in  the  newspapers,"  returned  the 
Captain,  smiling. 

"  You  say  Lena  Schmitt  was  the-  most 
persistent  disorderly  house  keeper  you 
ever  knew?  " 

"Ah.  no."  replied  the  Captain  shrewdly, 
"  I  said  -she  was  the  most  persistent  -vio- 
lator of  the  law  I  ever  knew."  ■ 

"  In  what  respect  was  she  a  violator  of 
the  law  If  not  as  a  disorderly  house 
keeper?  "  inquired  Mr.  Osborne. 

"Why,"  explained  the  Captain,  "she  let 
h^r  rooms  to  disorderly  persons." 

From  this  moment  the  battle  was  on. 
Mr.  Osborne  pugnacious  .  and  persistent, 
fired  question  after  question  at  the  big 
Captain.  The  latter  parried  and  fenced  and 
sparred  for  time,  quibbled,  protested,  ex- 
plained, argued,  and '-talked  most  volubly. 
Mr.  Osborne  would  shout  out  some  ques- 
tion, and  the  Captain  would  shout  back  an 
answer  which  told  little;  or  at  least,  as 
little  as  possible.  Mr.  Osborne  frequently 
asked  that  the  Captain  be  directed  to  ceasel 
arguing  and  expostulating  and  to  answer 
the  questions, 

"Did  you  put  an  officer  In  front  of  Lena 
Schmltt's  rooms  because  she  was  a  per- 
sistent violator  of  the  law?  " . 

"  Because  she  let  her  rooms  to  disorderly 
women.  I  put  the  officer  there  to  atop  It. 
My  Idea  was  to  harass  Jier  and  make  her 
business  unprofitable  and  make  her  move 
from  the  precinct." 

"  Was  that  your  Idea  of  all  you  should 
do?" 

"  We  could  not  bring  the  responsibility 
home  to  her." 

"  When  you  came  to  the  conclusion  you' 
ought  to  stop  It,  didn't  you  do  what  vou 
ceuld  have  d<nie  months  before— get  citlz"ens 
to  get  your  evidence?  " 

"  You  cannot  always  get  citizens.  I  Sidn't 
get  them  till  my  men  reported  their  IilabtK 
It^  to  get  evidence,  because  they  wereuso 
well  known  there. ' ' 

Tell  me  some  one  you  arrested  frpm 
that  house  from  October,  1900,  to  May, 
1901."    -  . 
My  records  -will -show."  ■ 
Your  men  have  sworn  they  made  no  ar- 
rests there?^" 

"There  are  more  plain  clothes  men  In 
the  precinct  than  the  three  that  testified 
here.  The  records  will  show  the  women 
arrested  In  that  vicinity." 

Can  you  show  one  attested  from  that 
house?"  .  ,  ^ 

i  can  if  I  can  look  at  my  records." 
Did  you  report  this  as  a  disorderly 
house  to  headquarters?  "  ! 
Not  till  I  got  evidence."  - 

PRESSES  TkB  CAPTAIN  SAJID. 
Are  you  familiar  with  Rule  4S,  b,  T^hlch 
requires  all  Captains,  to  report  monthly  the 
names    and  locations    of  all'  disorderly 
houses?"  , 

Yes.  I  first  reported  it  after  I  got' 
proper  evldertee."  ' 

Mr.  Osborne  showed  by  reports  that  this 
was  on  June  lO,  1901. 

Hr.'  Levy'  ebjectet^  to  this  line  of  ques- 
tioning on  the  nound  that' Capt.  Diamond 
was  not  on  trial  He  was  overruled.

BIG  TREE  FORJIG  FAIR. 

'St.  Louis  Exposition  Managers  Will 
Transplant  a  Giant  Red  Oaic,

Special  to  The  New  York  Times. 

ST.  LOUIS,  July  .Si.— For  the  Louisiana 
Purchase  Exposition  an  effort  is  to  be 
made  for  the  removal  of  a  hug?  tree,  root 
and  branch,  by  ^ater  more  than  1,000  miles 
from  the  wildest .  seetlon  of  Arkansas  to 
Forest  Park.  The  tree  is  a  red  oak,  100 
feet  high  and  12  feet  in  diameter  at  the 
base.  It  stands  in  the  forest  about  two 
miles  southeast  of  Elgin,  Ark.,  and  one 
mile  from  the  bank  of  Black  River. 

The  first  thing  to  be  accomplished  is  the 
construction  of  a  do-jble  tramway  with  the 
tracks  thirty  feet  apart  from  the  tree  to 
the  river,  where  it  will  be  floated-  and 
towed  to  St.  Louis.  It  is  estlniated  that 
this  will  occupy  six  months.  The  tree  will 
be  dug  up  by  the  root.s  Instes^  of  cut  in 
the  usual  manner,  and  none  of  its  branches 
will  be  trimmed,  but  will  be  put  on  exhi- 
bition just  as  It  now  stands  In  the  woods.

CHICAGO,  July ,  .SI.— From  nothing  -  to 
S300,000  Is  the  advance  the  Sugar  Trust  has 

^ciured^n-the  bogks^  of  the  Board  of  Re- 
view. The  American  Sugar  Riefining  Com- 
pany, which  is  the  official  name  of  the 
trust,  escaped  taxation  altogether  last  year. 
W.  A.  Havemeyer  and  his  attorney,  P.  f. 
Reed,  appeared-  before  the  reviewers.  Mr. 
Havemeyer  began  .saying  the  Sugar 
Trust  did  not,  have  any  stock  here  on 

■April  i.  It  had  all'  been  sold  before"  that 
timet 

"  Ynu  must  have  the  money  for  the  sugar 
you  sold,  then,"  Insisted  Reviewer  Upham, 
suggestively. 

Mr.  Havemeyer  finally  admitted  that  the 
Sugar  Trust  ordinarily  carried  2,000  to  3,000 
barrels  of  -  sugar  in  warehouse  here,  and 
that  the  filled  barrels  were  worth  about  $18 
each,  t  Then  it  was  that  Attorney  Reed 
spoke  up. 

"  I  ha\^e  not  had  time  to  look 
fully,  but  I  am  inclined  to  beUeve— thtft 
you  cannot  tax  this  stotk  of  sugar  for  the 
reason  that  sUch  a  tajjation  wbuld  be  In. 
violation  of  the  inter-State-rwrnmerce  law," 
said  Mr.  Reed.  "  The  companyls  Incorpo- 
rated In  New  Jersey,  and  wh<te«er  stock 
'It  sends  here  Is  usually  sold  -before^^t-^ets 
here,  and  therefore  does  not  belong  to  It, 
even  while  in  warehouse." 

Friday  afternoon  at  4  o'clock  was  named 
as  the  time  at  which  the  Board  of  Review 
will  listen  to  At4«rney  Reed's  argument. 

Arbuckle  Brothers  of  New  York  were 
represented  by  their  local  agent.  The  firm 
had  not  scheduled  any  property,  and'  It  was 
assessed  by  .the- Assessors  at  $12,"i,000.  Re- 
viewer Upham  ■  m^de  quick  work  of  this 
case  by  telling  the  agent  that  If  he  w^ted 
to  be  heard  he  should  file  a  schedule. 

TO  FIGHT  aUAT  VAbHINE. 


Pennsylvanfa's.  New  Vnlon  Party  to

Special  to  The  New  York  Times. 

l>HILADELPHrA,  July  31.— The  new 
Union  Party,  first  Organized  here  as  an  in- 
surgent Republican  movement  to  fight  the 
city  administration  and^the  Quay  Repub- 
lican ticket  for  the  Fall  election,  and  of 
which'  Col.  Alexander  McClure  has  come  to 
be  recognized  as  the  ^actical  leader,  now 
proposes  to  hold  a  State  convention  and  to 
^ut  up  a  State  ticket. 

Col.  McClure  Is  Chairman  of  the  City  and 
State  Relations  Committee,  which  will  de- 
cide the  matter  of  the  State  Convention  and 
set  the  darte.  The  Union  Party  has  already 
secured  representation  In  flfty-^ne  counties, 
and  will  shortly  co{nplete  the  organization 
throughout  the  State.  Some  of  the  best- 
known  anti-maehlne  men  In  the  State  have 
identified  themselves  with  the  movement 
and  the  convention  will  probably  be  held 
at  HarrlSburg  a,fter  the  Democrats  and  Re- 
publicans have  completed  their  tickets. 

Thus  far  representative  opinion  Is  In  favor 
of  the  nomination  of  Judge  Yer^es  for  Sif- 

Sreme  Court  and  Repreifentatlve  Coray  for 
tate  'Treasurer.  The  candidates  will  go  on 
the  ticket  by  means  of  nomination  papers, 
and  the  work  of  obtaining  the-  necessary 
signatures  Is- about  to  be  started.

Special  to  TheWew  York.  Time  . 
WASHINGTON,  July  31.-At  the  openln* 
of  business  at  the  United  States  "r^isury 
this  morning  It  had  in  its.,#ifikser1Ion  the 
largest  fuaftof  gold  held  by  any  ation  in 
the  world  aSa^the  greatest  ever  :  assessed 
by  this  Government!  At  9  o'clock  Jie  fund 
amounted  to  $3(M,354,297.  Thl*  In  Dives  an 
increase  during  the  past  month  '.  nearly 
$10,000,000  and  "  an  -increase  of  4,422.423... 
oyer  the  figures,,  of.  the  correspon  ing  dq 
of  last  year.'  ' 

The  fund  now  held  by  the  Unit .  \ 
Treasury  consists  of  the  followii  j  Items: 
Amount  held  against  gold  ce  tiflcates, 
$202,535,689;  reserve,  $130,000,r  vj^  and 
moneys  In  the  general  fund  of  t:  j  Treas- 
ury, $61,818,508.  The  amount  of  gold  re- 
serve required  by  statute  to  be  1  eld  from  ' 
time  to  time  Is  $150,000,000.  so -that,  the 
present  fund,  ^n  Its  entirety.  Is  :  irgely  In 
excess  of  the  figure  obliged  to  «  main-  . 
tained  under  the  law. 

It  Is  said  at  the  Treasury  Department 
that  this  amount  has  never  been  surpassed 
except  once.  The  Russian  Government  once 
claimed  to  .be  In  possession  of  a  rold  fund 
amounting  to  $598,700,000,  whlc  *  is  '  the 
highest  amount  of  reserve  on  r-e  ord.  On 
July  25  last  reports  were  recelv  d  at  the 
department  here  of  the  amounts^h  Id  by  for- 
eign  nations.  They  Were  as  folio'  s:  Bank 
Of  Bngl^,  $183,330,681;  Bank  of  lermany, 
$158,.183,434;  the  Imperial  Bank  t  :'  Russia.

$190,314,126,  and  Bank  of  Fratfce.  $478,258  - 
aa         ■  ; 

These  banks  hold  the  same  rel,  tive  posi- 
tions to  their  respecUve  Go^ler:  ments  aai, 
the 'Treasury  does  to  the  TTni  d  States 
Government,  so  that  the  finds  Indicated 
are  Governmental  and  not  pri-  xte^  The 
amount  jiow  held  by  France  In  ;  s  bank  is 
the  largest  In  theyhlstory  of  that  latlon,  so 
that  along  wUh.tfe  United  State  It  is  now 
enjoying  an  unusually  large  r  dundance 
of  Government  reserve. 

For  a  long  time  prior  to  Mr.  :  .cKinley's 
first  Inauguration  the  Treasury  1  ad  a  hard 
time  In  even  maintaining  the  rer  uired  one- 
hundred-and-fifty-mlllion-doUar  fund,  an* 
during  Mr.  Cleveland's  last  .Adir.iniStraUon 
it  was  fqund  necessary  to  solicit  lond  loans 
In  order  to  keep  the  fund  above  he  danger 
mark  and  maintain  the  formal  f  tablUty  of 
gold  certificates  for  the  Govemxr.  'nt 

e'of,^he  most  remarkable  features  of 
t«4  fund  ifow  held  by  the  Treat  ory  is  the 
f^ct  that  a  very  large  proporton  of  the 
lunt  is  of  home  production.  C  the  5504.- 
.'?54.|!)7  now  held,  very  little  Is  redlted  to 
the  I  importation  ac'count.  the  uik  of  it 
coTtAne  from,  the  Alaska  arid  Cr  .iple  Creek 
ralMng  regions.  During  the  fiscs,  year.end- 
ed/june  4  last  the  net  Importati  ns  of  gold 
amWnted  to  only  f 13,128,000. 

Of  this  quantity  of  ntet^l  a  lar  e  percent- 
age came  from  Australia.  T^lje  t  ild  that  is 
placed  in  the  Treasury  through  iiome  pro-' 
duction'  is  covered  by  the  issua-  :e  of  gold 
certificates,  every  dollar's  wort  of  which 
8tan<fi  guaranteed  by  its  equal  coin  held" 
in  the  vaults  of  the  Treasurj-.  ^rom  time 
to  tljne  expbrta'tions  of  coin  and  oulllon  are 
made  by  business  men  to  Europ  and  other 
points.  Thus,'»-for  instance,  -  urlng  the 
month  of  June  last  the  sum  r  -$5,000,000 
^i-as  sent  abroad,  while- the  ir  portatlons 
amounted  to  only  $3,260,000. 

In  speaking  of  the  immense  Um6  Of  fhe 
Governinent.  United  States  Tre;  Jiurer  Rob- 
erts said  this  afternoon: 

"  The  dimensions  of  this  fund  indicate  a 
great,  area  of  prosperity  noV  prevailing 
throughout  the  United  States.  It  can  al- 
ways "be  regarded  as  an  accural'  barometer 
of  industrial  and  commercial  conditforjs. 
and  the'  fact  that  It  Is  now  I:  excbss  of 
anything  we  have  ever  held  In-  oates  that 
the  volume  of  pur  business  h  s  assumed 
corresponding  proportions.  It  -jtrnishes  a 
cflnchlng  argument  against,  the  free  silver 
tneory  also,  and  shows  that  o  —  currency 
system  is  running  on  rock  '  lUast.  No 
stronger  argument  against  the  '  jtlllty  of  a 
change  in  our  currency  system  c  uid>be  fur-

STORM  SPIEADS  ALARM 
Ilf  CITY  AND  SDBORBS 


Wind  Velocity  iff  New  York  Streets, 
Sixty-six  Miles  an  Hour. 


A  WOMAN  DIES  OF  FRIGiHT 


,  In  New  Jersey  Towns  Lightning  Strikes 
in  Many  Places,  the  Wind  Attain- 
ing Hurricane  Force. 


All  signs  po\nted  to  a  day  of  extreme' heat 
as  .the  sun  rose  yesterday,  but  this  was  in 
]b  great  measure  averted  by- one  of  the' Se- 
verest thunderstorms  that  has  swept  over 
the  city  this  year.   The  storm  broke  at  a 

■  few  minutes  past  9,  and  in  the  following 
twenty-five  miijutes  caused  a  drop  in  the 

•  temperature  from  Si  to  T.'i  degrees.  The  ac- 
companying rain  had  something  of  the  fury 
of  a  cloudburst,  the  downfall  measuring 
15-100  inch  between'  0:10  3.nd  10:^0  o'clock. 

Wind  of  almost  hurricane  power  accom- 

■  panifd  the  rain,  attaiiiWa  velocity  of  slx- 
ty-six  rriiles  an  hour  during  the  five  min- 
tites  following  Dilo  o'clock.  It  carried  sheets 
of  water  through  the  crowd  of  thousands  of 
men  and  women  who  sought  shelter  at  the 
Manhattan  entrance  to  the  Brooklyn  Bridge 
and  thrpugh  the  curtains  of  the  trolley 
cars  cro.ssing  the  big  structure.' while  small 

-  mouhjtain  torrents  swept  down  the  prom- 
enade and  drlfewavs  over  the  feet  of  the 
Burgjng  throng  at  the  terminus  and  formed 
a  turbulent  lake  in  Park  Row. 

Mo.st  distre.asing  sights  were  seen  about 
the  Third  Avenue  car  barns  of  the  Metro- 
politan Railway  system,  at  Sixty-fifth 
Street.  While  the  storm  was  it  its  fierp- 
tst  no  deviation  was  made  in  the  practice 
of  sending  alternate  cars  back  to  Harlem 
.    from  that  point  to  bring  down  rhore  pas- 

■  sengers,  although  all  came  in  crowded; 
The  pas.'engers  on  these  cars,  prote'sti'ng 

1    plaintively  or  profanely,  according  to  .sex 
I    or  habit,  were .  turned  out  into  the  down- 
pour with  the  choice  of  running  to  the 
crowded  car  ahead  or  trying  to  board  the 
crowded  ear- behind.    One  cripple  Was  thus 

•  s?rved.  •  He  started  forward,  but  could 
make  but  slow  progress,  and  the  car  start- 
e'd  oh  without  him. 

Just  before  ,the  storm  burst  a  ^witetiTnan 
at  that  point  tried  the  ott-repeated  experi- 
ment of  sending  a  car  along  both  tracks 
at  once,  wl-th  the  usual  result  that  the  car 
had  to  be  dragrged  from  the  rails  by  sheer 

.  muscular  effort.  Tt  took  .about  half  an 
hour  to  get  the  tracks  cleared,  and  then 
the.  electric  plow,  which  had  been  broken 

.  off,  wa.s  left  wedge.d'  between  the .  slot 
rails.  A  policeman  and  .  a  ■^•hitewasher 
muiihted  guard  about  it  and  kept  the. 'crowd 
from  it,  while  a  mechanic  with  a  sledge 
tried  to  drive  it  into, the  channel  below, 
T>rodu(5ing-at  every  blow  blinding,  sheets  of 
snapping  electric -fflame.         -.  - 

Passengerf;  nn  a  train  from  Hackensack 
told  of  exc'ithig  experiences  when  they 
reached  the  Erie  Station  in  Jersey  City. 
The  storm  struck  the  train  near  Carlstad,t 

■  "With  sugh  force  th.at  they  feared  the  beat- 
ing' w.arter  ivould  drive  In  the  windows,  and 
all  left  their  seats  and  stood  in  the  aisle.s. 
JIuch  rain  did  drive  In  through  chinks  and 
crannies  and  many  were  drenched.

FIERCE  STORM  IN  NEWARK. 

Houses  Unroofed  and  Stores  Flooded- 
Ltghtning  Strikes  in  the  Oranges 


and  Bloonifield. 


NEWARK,  N.  J..  July  31.— A  storm  of 
unusual  \'1olence  struck  this  city  this  morn- 
ing, doing  much  damage.  The  wind  blew, 
■with  terrific  force,  unroofing  a  number 
of  houses,  demolishing  chimneys,  lev-ellng 
trees,  and.  knocking  over  fences.  The  rain 
fell  in  torrents,  and  In  a  short,  time  many 
cellars',  were  flooded.  In  some  cases  the 
■water  reached  the  first  floor  of  houses 
and  stores,  driving  the  occupants  to  the 
tipper  floors. 

The  ■^Veather  Bureau  reported  that  the 
storm,  although  of  short  duration,  was  the 
heaviest  in  point  of  precipitation  during 
July,  ■  three-quarters  of  an  Inch  f^llns 
within  fifteen  lAlnutes. 

When  the  worst  of  the  storm  appeared  to 
be.  over,  lightning  struck  a  pole  In  the  yard 
of  Edward  Balbach's  residence,  at  Fassalo 

venue  and  Ferguson  Street.  Wires  are 
strung  from  the  pole  Into  the  attic  of  the 
house,  and  the  bolt  traveled  along  these 
and  set  fire  to  the  framework  around 
the  window,  through  which  the  wires  en- 
ter. ■  The  members  of  Engine  Company 
No.  3  put  out  the  fire  with  a  chemical  ex- 
'  tinguisher. 

The  Erie  tfaln  due  at  the  station  sat 
Riverside  at  S\3ti  o'clock  'rin  off  the  track. 
The  rails  were  covered  with  water,  and 
the  engineer  could  'not  See  that  some  rocks 
had  been  washed  on  the  tracks.  The  for- 
ward wheels  of  the  locomotive  struck  the 
■  rocks  and  left  the  track.  It  was  nearly  1 
o'clock  when  the  road  was  open  for  traffic 
again. 

.  Two  Polish  women,  living  in  the  base- 
ment of  25  Boyd  Street,  were,  rescued  from 
the  flood  as  it  poured  into  the  front  win- 
dows during  the  storm.  ;  .Some  one  crying 
for  help  attracted  the  attention  of  Louis 
Bailer,  who  lives  across  the  street.  He  ran 
to  the  house  and  with  difficulty  found  the 
steps  which  were  already  under  water.  In 
'the  back  room  were  the  women,  clinging 
to  each  other,  the  water  already  up  to  their 
waists,  and  fast  rising.  Bailer  hurriedly 
Jed  them  to  the  street. 

A  westbound  Irvlngton  trolley  cat  at 
Market  Street  struck  a  heavily  laden  truck 
»t  Jackson  and  Market  Streets  wi^e  the 


storm  was  at  its  height.  The  car  was  run- 
ning at  a  high  rate  of  speed  and  pushed 
the  wagon  along  .almost  twenty  feet.  The 
fronr  of  the  car  was  crushed  .and  the  pas- 
sengers were .  badly  shaken  up.  The  rain 
was  blinding  at  the  time  of  the  accident. 

Lightning  struck  heavy  feed  wire  lead- 
ing into  the  power  room  of  the  hat  factorx 
of  McGfll  and  Crowell,  on  Central  Avenue, 
West  Orange.  The  fuse  blew  out  and  a 
hole  was  burned  in  a  gas  pipe  near  by. 
Igniting  the  gas.  The  wall  was  quickly  in 
flames,  and  an  alarm  was  sent  In.  The  em- 
ployes of  the  factory  then  got  a  stream  on, 
the  fire  and  piit  it  out  before  the  firemen 
arrived.  ' 

Lightning  struck  the  roof  on  the  Cleve- 
land Street  public  school  in  Orange. 


EXCURSIONISTS  IN  PERIL 


Long  Island  Church  Party  Caught  in  the 
Storm  in  Great  South  Bay. 

SAYVILLE,  L.  L,  July  31.-^ne  hundred 
men,  women,  and  children,  members  of  the 
Sayville  Methodist  Church,  had  an  exclt- 
in.g  experience  this  morning  in  th#  rain, 
hail,  and  thunder  storm  which  passed  over 
this'  section  between  0  and  10  o'clock. 
The  party  was  bound  on  the  annual  out- 
ing of  the  church  to  Cherry  Beach  Grove. 
The  sail  up  Great  South  Bay  was  to  be 
taken/on  the  big  sloop  Salmer,  which  has 
only  (a  "cubby"  cabin,  and  no  shelter 
;\^aF  ifforiled  for  the  excursionists. 

Ttiay  had  been  out  about  an  hour  and 
were  making  good  progress,  when  the  storm 
loomed  up  in  the  west.  It  was  useless  to 
seelr  harbor,  as  the.re  was  none  near  enough 
to  be  reached  before  the  storm  came.  Old 
.sails  were  gotten  out  and  wrapped  about 
groups  of  women  and  children.  The  crew 
of  the  Salmer  also  lowered  the  sail,  and' 
under  a  little  piece  of  canvas  waited  for 
the  downpour. 

It  was  not  long  in  coming.  The  thunder 
rolled  continually,  and  the  lightning  terri- 
fied the  w.omen  -and  .children.  The  wind 
blew  away  their  hats  and  parasols,  which 
had  "been  hoisted  m  a  vain  eijdeavor  to  keep 
dry.  Then  the  rain  'changed  to  a  torrent 
of  hail,  and  the  Big  stones  cut  and  bruised 
the  exposed  ones.  Many  women  fainted 
and  the  rest  screamed,  while  the  children 
.set  up  a  general  howl.  ^ 

The  food  of  the  party  was  soaked,  and 
from  the  heap  of  baskets  near  the  mast 
ran  streams  of  colored  water  as  the  rain 
belted  pies  and  dishes  which  had  been 
carefully  prepared  for  the  dinner.  When 
the  storm  passed  and  the  sun  came  out  not 
one  person  on  board  had  a  dry  article  of 
clothing.  The  provisions  were  all  ruined, 
and  the  excursionists  were  glad  to  sail 
for  home.  i 


LIGHTMNG  KILLS  -4  BOY. 


Strnck    Dead    in    a    Cottage  'Wbtle 
Reading  to  Hlfi  Mother. 

ATLANTIC  CITY,  N.  J.,  July  31.— While 
reading  to  his  mother,  about  noon  to-day, 
in  a  cottage  at  Steelmanvllle,  a  bolt'  of 
lightning  came  through  the  window  and  in- 
stantly killed  thirteen-year-old  Davis 
Weaver,  son  of  E.fForest  Weaver  of  Phila- 
delphia. 

The  mothe.r  escaped  with  a  shock  which, 
while  it  stunned  her,  did  no  physical  in- 
jury. 'Other  occupants  of  the  cottage  were 
also  stunned. 


MAY  PAY  FOR  BLOW  WITH  LIFE. 

Aged  Italian  Drives  a  Butcher  Knife 
Almost  Through  Man  Th'at 
Struck  Him. 

Lourigers  at  Canal  and  Mott  Streets,  in 
the-Ltalian  (luarter,  last  night  were  ,  as- 
tonished to  see  an  old  man  bareheaded, 
with  long,  white  hair  streaming  behind  him 
-run  out  of  the  saloon  at  8!)  Mulberry  Street 
with  a  large  butcher's  knife  in  his  hand 
to  two  men  who  were,  talking  peaceably 
on  the  cbnicr,  and  without  a  word  plunge 
the  weapon  up  to  the  handle  into  the  body 
of  one  of  them.  The  stabb'ed  man  fell  to 
the  .sidewalk  without  even  a  groan,  and 
Policeman  Roth  of  -  the-  Elizabeth  Street 
Station  called  an  ambulance  and  arrested 
the  old  man. 

The  victim  was  Frank  Robino,  thirty- 
nine  years  old,  of  8!i  Thompson.  Street,  and 
his  a.'^sailant  was  Nlcolo  Gogiiordo,  seventy- 
one  years  old,  of  SI  Mulberry  Street.  When 
he  was  brou.^ht  before  the  Sergeant  he 
shouted: 

•■  Mc  no  'fraid  of  the  electric  chair.  Me 
hope  he  died.  No  .strike  old  man  any 
more." 

Investigation  proved  that  the  men  had 
been  in  a  party  in  the  saloon  discussing 
the  plans  of  the  Anarchists  to  murder  the 
Quel  n  of  Italy,  ,  when  high  words  'ens,ued 
in  the  course  of  .'which  Ro'oi-no  struck 
Gogiiordo  In  the  face.  The  old  man  then 
seized  the  butcher  finite,  lying  convenient 
on  the  bar,'  and  tried  to  slab  Robino,  hut 
was  prevented  by  friends. 

Robino  I^Ct  the  saloon  with  an  acquaint- 
ance, and,^after  the  old  man's  rage  ap- 
jToared  to  have  subsided,  those  who  were 
hold:n:T  hin;-let  him  go..  He  at  once  seized 
th^  Ivnife  and  started,  on  .a  run  in  the  direc- 
tion Robino  had  taken:  At  Hudson  Street 
Hospital  it  was  foi^nd  that  the  knife  had 
almust  traTsiixed  the  body,  and  tljat  the 
man  was  d^ing.  Coroner  Hart  was  sum- 
moned to  lake  his  antc'-morte.m  statement. 


TWO  MEN  SHOT  IN  A  FIGHT. 

A -Romance  Leads  to  Riot  in  Mulberry 
Street— One  Man  .  Dying. 

»  Francisco  Maltucci,  thirty-two-years  old, 
of  l.^VH'anov'er  S^.uare,  Brooklyn,  is'  dying 
in  the  Hudson  Street  Hospital, .and  with 
his  d.ving  words,  he  accuses  Genirio  Spadet- 
ti,  twenty-seven  years  olll,  of  lOi)  Mulberry 
Street,  of  being  responsibly  for  his  Wounds. 
Detective  Bernstein  of  the  Elizabeth  Street 
Police  Station  had  a  narrow,  escape  from 
death,  and  lost  three  fingers  of  the  right 
hand. 

Cicero  Padula,  22  years,  of  Mill's  .Hotel 
No.  1,  is  badly  bruised,  and  M^y  flossl, 
eighteen  years  Old;  of  I'lO  Second  Avenue, 
who  was  the  Indirect  cause  of  the  attempt 
at  murder  and  incipient  riot,  which  re-, 
riuired  the  calling  out  of  the  Elizabeth 
Street  Station  reserves,  is  detfiined  as- 
a  '\yithess.  »  ' 

For  a  long  time  Maltucci  and  Spadetti 
have  been  rivals  for  the  girl's  hand.  Last 
night  May  was  walking  with  Maltucci 
along  Mulberry  Street,  near  Canal,  when 
they  met  Spadetti. 

The  moment  he  saw  the  pair  Spadetti 
made  straight  lor  them  and  in  an  excited 
tone  declared  that  he  was  going  to  kill  both 
of  them.  The  girl  screamed  and  fled. 

Spadetti  drew  a  revolver  and  aimed  at 
Maltucci.  His  second  shot  brought  Mal- 
tucci to  the  ground.  Detectives  Henry 
Bernstein  and  \v'illiam  Burns  of  the  Eliza- 
beth Street  Station  heard  the  shots  aftd 
they  started  in  the.  direction  whence  ti^y 
came.  Bernstein  ran  after  Spadetti,  w^n 
the  Italian  turned  back  and  leveled  his 'pis- 
tol at  the  detective.  Bernstein  sank  to  the 
ground,  it  was  only  a  ruse,  though.  He 
had  not  been  struck. 

But  Spadetti  shot  again.  Bernstein  raised 
his  hand  to  his  face,  just  in  time  to  receive 
the  bullet  through  his  hand.  Three  fingers 
were  almost  torn  off  and  the  scalp  grazed. 
Burns  was  running  as  fast  as  he  could,  to 
rescue  hl«  partner  when  Cicero  Padula 
tried  to  knock  him  down  so  as  to  cover  the 
flight  of  SpaaettL 

The  detectrvB  aimed  a  blow  at  Cicero, 
which  knocked^SiiTO  down.  There  Cicero 
lay  unconscious  until  the  trouble  was  all 
over.  Then  Burns  turned  his  attention  to 
Spadetti  and  beat  him  over  the  head  with 
his  pistol,  finally  subduing  him. 

But  an  enormous  crowd  of  yelling,  shriek- 
ing, and  desperate  Italians  had  follow^ed. 
Some  clamored  for  the  life  of  Spadetti, 
while  others  wanted  the  police  wiped  out. 
The  fighting  was  furious  over  the  prostrate 
{orm  of  Bernstein,  while  a  little  further 
away,  Maltucci  was  lying  groaning  and 
gasping.  Then  the  reserves  arrived,  and 
with  drawn  clubs  they  charged  the  crowd. 

Charles  A.  Schott  Dead. 

WASHINGTON,  J.uly  31.-Prof.  Charles 
A.  Schott,  for  more  than  half  a  century 
an  assistant  In  the  United  States  Coast 
and  Geodetic  Survey,  died  here  to-night, 
aged  seventy-five  years.  Several  years  ago 
the  French  Academy  conferred  oiylitm  Its 
its  highest  honor— a  medal  for  his  re- 
. searches  in  terrestrial  magnetism. 

Charles  Anthony  ■  Schott  was  'born  at 
Mannheim,  3aden,  Germany,  Aug.  7,  1826.

THE  NEW  SUC^R  fiEFINERY 


Robert  / Crooks  &  Co^  Behind  the 
New  Jersey  Project. 


The  Plant  Will  Have  a  Daily  Capacity 
of  15,000  Barrels— The  Con- 
tracts Given  Out. 


E.'  H.  Lalng,  of  the  firm  of  Robert  Crooks 
&  Co.  of  Liverpool  and  New  York  yester- 
day said  that  this  firm  Is  behind  the  plan 
to  build  a  sugar  refinery  on  the  New  Jer- 
sey shyre  of  the  Hudson  River,  opposite 
Granlj^  Tomb.  The  refinery  will  have  a 
dally  capacity  of  15,000  barrels,  and  will 
be  built  by  the  G.  M.  Newell  Engineering 
Company  of  Philadelphia,  .which  built  the 
Arbuckle,  National,  and  McCahan  Re- 
fineries. Contracts  for  the  building  and 
machinery  are  said  to  have  been  let  al- 
readv. 

The  firm  of  Robert  Crooks  &  Co.  for 
yeiars  made  a  specially  of  importing  foreign 
refined  sugars,  but  subsequently  entered 
Into  an  agreement  with  the  American  Sugar 
Refining  Company  to  handle  the  trust's 
sugar.  Last  Spring  the  trust  terminated 
this  agreement  on  the  ground  that  Crooks 
&  Co.  were  shading  the  prices  of  the  com- 
pany's product. 

During  the  Ijjst  few  month?  the  firm  has 
been  again  Importing  foreign  refined  sugar, 
and  has  represented  the  Tale  Refinery  in 
Liverpool,  one  of  the  largest  refineries  in 
Great  Britain. 


FIGHT  AGAINST  BEET  SUGAR. 

Henry  B.  Oxnard,  President  of  the  Amer- 
ican Beet  Sugar  Company,  talking  of  the 
opposition  of  the  Spreckels  syndicate  :n 
California  to  beet  sugar  Interests  west  of 
the  Missouri  River  and  the  increase  in  the 
capital  of  the  American  Sugar  Refining 
Company,  partly  In  view  of  a  purpose  Jo 
secure  from  Congress  the  reduction  or  re- 
moval of  the  duty  on  raw  sugar  from  Cuba, 
is  quoted  in  Wall  Street  as  saying: 

'•  We  have  under  'way  twenty-eight  fac- 
tories for  the  production  of  beet  sugar,  and 
expect  to  build  at  least  ten  more  this  year. 
This  has  aroused  the  Spreckels  syndicate, 
which  recently  attempted  to  persuade  Den- 
ver grocers  to  promise  to  make  75  per  cent; 
of  their  whole  sales  In  the  product  of  the 
trust. 

"  Recently  the  syndicate  reduced  the 
price  'of  its  product  here'  one-fourth  of  a 
cent  a  pound,  and  lncre.a«ed  it  in  the  East, 
where  there  are  no  considerable  beet  sugar 
factories.  This,  of  course,  forced  us  to  cut 
prices  aijd  takes  so  much  from  our  profit. 
My  company  has  recently  '  bought  80,000 
acres  of  land  In  the  Arkansas  'Valley,  and 
expects  to  erect  a  factory  there. 

"  The  syndicate  handles  crude  sugar, 
bringing  it  from  Hawaii,  Java,  India,  and 
the  West  Indies,  and  refines  it  and  sells  it 
as  American  sugar.  So  It  will  attempt  at 
the  next  session  of  Congress  to  have  the 
duty  on  crude  sugar  lowered,  and  perhaps 
Abolished.  ., ,  ,  j,, 

"  Should  it  succeed,  it  would  be  discour- 
aging to  the  beet  sugar  industry,  which  is 
in  its  infancy.  All  of  this  Is  of  the  greatest 
Interest  to  Cokirado,  which  Is  the  finest 
country  in  the  *orld  for  the  culture  of  su- 
gar beets."  , 

INDEPENDENT  SUGAR  COMPANY 

■  # 
ELIZABETH,  N.  J.,  J'uly  31.— The  Inde- 
pendent Sugar  Refining  Company  filed  to- 
day .with  the  County  Clerk  articles  of  In- 
corporation. The  capital  Is  put  at  ipi25,'000, 
but  this  can  be  increased  at  will.  The 
home  office  of  the  company  will  be  at  Fan- 
'wood,  in  this  county,  where  Harry  C. 
Chrislensen,  one  of  the  incorporators,  re- 
sides. 

The  other  Incorporators  named  are  Henry 
L.  Hobart  and  George  R.  McGlnnis.-  Thetr 
addresses  are  given  as  Front  Street,  New 
York  City.  While  the  details  of  the  concern 
are  not  made  public  here,  it  is  said  that 
the  formation  of  the  concern  Is  the  founda- 
tion or  development  of  a  strong  rival  to.  the 
Sugar  Trust.  Mr.  Hobart  Is  said  to  be  al- 
ready interested  In  fighting  the  trust,  and 
that  "his  supply  is  obtained  from  a  refinery 
in  Hoboken. 

The  charter  Is  ample  to  cover  almost  any- 
thing or  to  be  expanded  in  Its  scope  at  any 
time  It  is  drawn  under  what  has  become 
known  as  the  "  blanket  clause." 


A  DIVVER  PLOT  FAILS. 


lYNN'S  GREAT  INDTJSTET. 


Shoe    Mnnnfactnrerii    Show    an  In- 
.crefifie  ol  Alioat  20  Per  Cent. 

Special  tt  The  New  York  Times. 

LYNN,  Mass.,  July  31.— The  output  pf 
i5hoes  from  Lynn  factories  this  year  will  tie 
the  largest  in  the  history  of  the  city,  and  its 
value  will  far  exceed  that  of  any  previous 
year.  There  is  hardly  a  factory  that  is  not 
running  full  time,  and  many  are  advertis- 
ing for  help,  a  remarkable  situation  for 
July.  Most  of  the  boxes  made'  here  are 
used  by  the  local  concerns,  and  the- busi- 
ness of  the  box  factories  is  an  unerring  in- 
dication of  the  shoe  trade.  From  figures 
obtained  from  the  box  men,  it  appears  that 
there  are  between  70,IX)0  and  "15,000  pairs 
of  shoes  now  being  made-  in  Lynn,  an  in- 
crease of  20  per  cent,  over  last  July. 

Tlie  increased  bilsine"ss  is  shared  by  near- 
ly all  the  manufacturers.  Two  years  ago 
there  were  not  more  than  four  or  five  firms 
in  Lynn  that  manufactured  directly  for  the 
retail  trade.  "To-day  more  than  half  of  the 
manufacturers  sell  the  whole  or  part  of 
their  product  to  retailers,  several  have  es- 
tablished shoe  stores  in  this  and  other 
cities,  and,  with  a  few  exceptions,  this 
change  in  business  has  been  fraught  with 
^ood  results  to  the  manufacturer  and  the 
community. 


PRINCETON'S  EXAMINATIONS. 


A  Score  of  Stntlenta  'Fall  to  Pass  at 
the  Spring;  TrlalD. 

Special  to  The  Ne-d?'-  York  Times. 

PRINCETON,  U.  J.,  July  Sl.—A  surprise 
•which  will  come  as  an  ^ye-opener  to  a  numr 
ber  of  Prlncet6n  undergraduates  was 
sprung  here  to-day  when  it  became  known 
that  a  score  or  more  of  students  from  the 
incoming  sophomore,  junior,  and  senior 
classes  had  failed  s^  completely  in  the  June 
examinations  that  they  nave  been  dropped 
^rom  their  respective  classes.  Some,  of 
those  who  failed  will  be  allowed  to  enter 
lower,  classes  in  the  Fall,  while  others  wlfi 
be  marked  off  the  university  rolls. 

A  striking  feature  of  the  failures  is  the 
fact  that  three  of  the  best  athletes  in  the 
university,  two  of  whom  are  on  the  base- 
.  ball  nine  and  one  oh  the  football  team;  are 
said  to  be  on  the  list.  As  Princeton's  eligi- 
bility rules  defer  for  one  year  a  student 
who  has  been  dropped  to  a  lower  class, 
these  men  will  not  be  allowed  to  play  in 
any  regular  games  with  other  colleges  dur- 
ing the  coming  college  year.' 

The  registrar  has  not  given  out  the  names 
of  the  dropped  students,  but  he  has  notified 
the  deficient  students  themselves.  Several 
of  them  have  returned  to  Princeton  in  the 
hope  of  obtaining  permission  to  take  exam- 
inations over  again  In  the  Fall.  As  yet 
tlwlr  efforts  have  met  with  no  success,  as 
the  Examination  Committee  refuses  to 
grant  them  such  a  privilege. 
t  A  member  of  the  Faculty,  when  asked 
for  hlS'  opinion  on  the  matter,  said  he 
thought  It  was  a  good  thing  that  the  recent 
examinations  proved  a  severe  test  to  some 
of  the  less  ambitious  students,  and  that  It- 
might  serve  as  a  warning  to  others  who 
depend  so  largely  on  getting  through'  the 
examinations  merely  by  a  few  days  of  hard 
work  near  the  end  of  the  term. 


THE  OPHIR  OF  SOLOMON. 


Dr.  Carl  Peters  Believes  that  He  Has 
Found  It  in  Africa. 

LONDON,  Aug.  l.^Dr.  Carl  Peters,  the 
German  explorer,  writes  to  The  Times  as- 
serting his  belief,  as  a  result  of  his  discov- 
eries in  South  Africa  during  the  last  two 
years,  that  thk  country  between  the  Zam-^ 
besi  and  the  Sabi  is  the  Oi^lr  of  Solomon. 

From  traces  of  Egyptlail  civilization  Dr. 
Peters  believes  that  the  mining  district 
was  originally  discovered  "by  Egyptians, 
and  that  there  was  an  Egyptian-  colony 
there  before  the  Phoenicians  took  tlie 
country,  between  1100  B.  C.  and  1000  B.  C. 
He  Intends  at  an  early  date  to  lay  all  his 
evidence  before  the  public.

Effort  to  Disposses  Foley Ites  Foiled  by 
Victims  Leasing  tlia  Whole  House. 

.  A  ne'W  political  'Wrinkle  was  sprung  in  the' 
Dlvver-Foley  flgJlt  for  the  Tammany  lead- 
ership of  the  Second  Election  District  Tues- 
day afternoon ,  by  the  Dlwer  braves,  who 
tried  to  dispossess  Foley .  voters.  Their 
plot  v.as  met  by  a  counter-plot,  and  the 
Foleyltes' won  by  leasing  the  entire  housed 
and,  from  last  accounts,  were  threatening 
tq  put  the  Diwer  sympathisers  out  on  a 
cold  curb  In  the  sta.rllght. 

The  house  .is  the  old  school  building  at 
GU  Elm  Street,  which  the  city  ,  has  leased 
to  Mrs.  Alice  Grady  at  $40  a  riionlh.  Un- 
til the  present  row,  Mrs.  Grady  rerented 
the  house  by  floors  to  tenants,  and  made 
a  comfortable  profit  out  of  the  undertaking. 

Cornelius  '  Sullivan,  one  of  the  Diwcr 
Captains  and  step-father  q(  Mrs.  Grady, 
lives  in  .the  house.  He  noflced  about  two 
weeks  ago  that  letters  Rearing  the  Foley 
stamp  were  being  delivered  in  the  house 
to  one  of  the  tenants.  To  make  sure  that 
his  suspicions  were  well  founded,— he  ap- 
proached Henry  Schlerhdrst,  who  had  lived 
with  his  mother  and  his  brother  George  at 
the  house  ever  since  Mrs.  Grady  began  to 
rent  it  five  years  ago.  '  J 
'  "  'Bout  time  you  fellers  were  to  join  the 
Divver  Club,  ain't  it?"  asked  Sullivan.  ■ 

"  We've  Joined  the  Foley  people  already," 
answered  Henry  Schierhorst,  and  with  that 
the  war  was  opened. 

Mr.  .  Sufllvan  Informed  Mr.  Schierhorst 
that  he  would  have  him  dispossessed  and 
would  prevent  him  from  voting  at  the  next 
election.  That  same  afternoon  a  City  Mar- 
shal appeared  and  served  a  dispossess 
notice  on^ the  Schierhorsts.  The  notice  had 
been  issued  by  Civil  Justice  Bolte,  a  mem- 
ber of  the  Divver  Club.  The  Schierhorsts 
consulted  with  members  of  the. Foley  or-; 
ganizatlon  an(^  a  plan  of  campaign  was 
mapped  out. . 

They  learned  how  much  Mrs.  Grady  was 
paying  for  the  house  and  went  to  the  Con- 
troller's office  and  offered  $50  a  month  in- 
stead of  Mrs.  Grady's  $40.  The  bargain 
was  made  and  signed  and  Schierhorst  put 
up  $100  as  security  for  rental  for  the  next 
two  months,  the  date  of  the  lease  to  begin 
to-morrow. 

Within  an  hour  after  the  signing  of  the 
lease  the  Controller's  office  notified  Mrs. 
Grady  of  the  new  lessee  of  the  house,  and 
that  by  Aug,  1  he  would  lake  charge  of  his 
prAperty.  Mrs.  Grady  at  first  paid  little 
attention  to  the  notice,  until  Tuesday  an 
officer  I  of  the  Controller's  office  called  on 
her.  and  notified  her  of  the  change  which 
had  taken  place.  '/Mrs.  Grady  said  that 
slie  would  take  no  notice  of  the  new  lessee, 
and  she  vowed  that  she  would  have  him 
put  out  of  the  house  by  to-morrow.  Law- 
yer Hoyer,  counsel  for  the  Schierhorsts, 
said: 

"  My  clle(nls  have  an  Iron-clad  agreement, 
and  we  hold  the  upper  hand  and  will  do  as 
we  please."  When  seen  last  night  the 
Schierhorsts  had  Ultle.'to  say. 

"  There  Is.  talk  of  a  settlement  in  some 
way;  and  we' do  not  'want  to  make  things 
disagreeable." 

BOURKE  COCKRAN  SAILS. 

Before  Leaving  for  Europe  Denies  that 
He  M^y  Be  the  Anti-Tammany 
Mayoralty  Candfdate. 

Bourke  Cockran,  sailed  for  Europe  on  the 
WJiite  Star  liner  Teutonic  at.  noon  yester- 
dafcf.  Soon  after  he  reached  the  ship  Mr. 
Cockran  was  approached  by  a}- number  of 
newspaper  men.  and  asked  If  there  was 
any  foundation  for  the  story,  published  In 
the  morning  papers  yesterday  that  he  was 
being  considered  seriously  for  the  anti- 
Tammany  nomination  for  Mayor. 

"  I  know  absolutely  nothing  about-  the 
matter,"  he  replied,  "  except  what  I  read 
in  the  papers.  As  far  as  I  know,  there  is 
no  truth  in  the'  story.  This  Is  a  time  of 
th.e  year,  you  know,  when  a  man.  no  matter 
how  obscure,  is  liable  to  get  hi.,  .tame  m 
the  papers.'' 

In  reply  to  the  question  as  lb  whether  he 
would  take  an  active  part  in  the  cam- 
paign this  Fall.  Mr.  Cockran.  siaid  that  he 
knew  nothing  about  politics,  as  he  Had  been 
too  busy  l6/g;ive  the  subject  any  attention. 
Mr.  Cockrafn  gaid  he  w,as  going  abroad  for 
rest  and  tli^t'  he'  expected  to  be  back  in 
New  ,y.flrk:  about  Sept.  10. 

MABYLANO  DEMOCRATS  GATHER. 


Platform  Will  Probably  Be  Confined  to 
State  Issues. 

BALTIMORE,  July  31.— The  Democratic 
State  Con-Ventlon.  which  will  meet  at 
Ford's  Opera  House,  this  city,  at  noon  to- 
morrow; promises  to  be  thoroughly  har- 
monious. The  only  nominations  to  be 
made  are  for  Controller  and  Clerk  of  the 
Court  of  Appeals.  At  this  time  there  seems 
no  reason  to  doubt  that  Dr.  Joshua  W, 
Herlng  will  be  renominated  for  Controller 
artd  J.  Frank  Turner  'will  get  the  other 
place. 

As  to  the  platform.  It  seems  clear  that, 
no  mention  will  be  made  of  National  issues, 
but  "every  plank  in  the  platform  will  be 
confined  strictly  to  State  Issues.  Proml- 
neht.'affio^^gf'thtee.  It  is  understood,  will  be 
the  jpegrp  .voter  problem.  Although  the 
leaders.  wUL  not  admit  It,  there  Is  every 
reason  ifor  believing  that  a  strong  declata-' 
tion  will  be  made  upon  this  subject,  follow- 
ing closely  along  the-  lihes  laid  down  by 
the  Democrats  at  their  recent  convention 
In  Frederick  County,  the  home  of  Col.  L.

Many  Homesteads  to  .Claimants. 

EL  RENO,  Oklahoma,  July  31.— Two 
thousand  one  hundred  names  were  drawn 
from  each  wheel  In  the  Government  land 
lottery  to-day,  making  the  gra'nd  total  8,700 
The  list  of  prize  winners  will  be  completed

continue  until  about  10,000  names  for  each 
district  shall  be  drawn  from  the  wheels, 
njaklng  a  total  of  20,000  names.  As  -there 
are  about  13,500  claims  in  the  new  country, 
the  drawing  of  20,000  names  will  go  be- 
yond the  point  where  persons  above  13,500 
can  get  land.  The  remaining  envelopes 
will  draw  blanks,  but  as  th^  commission 
desires  to  impress  the  public  with  the  fair-

PUGILISTS  MAY  GO  TO  GEORGIA. 


Southern  Governor  Not  Opposed'to  Jef- 
fries-Ruhlin  Fight; 

Special  to  The  Neiv  York  Times. 

SAVANNAH,  Ga.,  July  3i.-lt  seems 
pretty  certain  at  this  tirhe  that  a  strong 
effort  will  be  made  to  have  Jaines  Jef- 
fries and  Gus  Ruhlln  engage  In  a  boxing 
contest  of  twenty-five  rounds  for  the 
world's  championship  in  Savannah  in  the 
early  Fall. 

Savannah  Is  to  have  the  Georgia  State 
Fair  early  in  November,  and  an  effort  will 
be  made  to  bring  the  big  fellows  here  dur- 
ing that  event. 

There  was  some  anxiety  to  know  what 
Gov.  Candler  and  the  State  -officers  would 
think  of  the  plan.  Gov.  Norlhen  sent  out 
a  special  eompany  of  State  cavalry  to  keiep 
Corbett  and  Mitchell  out  of  the  State  'v^hen 
•they  fought  in  Florida. 

Gov.  Candler  has,  however,  expressed  a 
willingness  to  have  the  contest  pulled  off 
at  Savannah  and  within  the  0tate  bounds. 
He  announced  to-day  that  he  would  have 
,no  objection  to  a  sparring  contest  In  Sa- 
vannah provided  the  law  was  not  violated, 
but  It  the  law  was  trespassed  In  the  slight-* 
est  degree  he  would  take  steps  at  once  to 
punish  the  trespassers.  This  announcement 
was  mtide  in  Atlanta  to  Major  G.  M.  Ryals 
of  Savannah,  a  prominent  citizen,  who 
called  on,  the  Chief  Executive  this  morning 
for  the  express  purpose  of  asking  him.  about 
the  Ruhlin-Jeffries  prizefight 

When  the  situation  was  fully  explained 
the  Governor  said:  "  If  the  law  is  not  vio- 
lated I  ,haVe  no  objection.  If  the  law  is 
'Violated  then  somebody  will  have  to  suf- 
ffer."  .- 

The  haCkers  of  the  movement'  say  this 
assurance  from  ~|the  Governor  is  all  they 
want.  They  have  no  Idea  of  violating  any 
law.

IMPORT  AGENTS  MAY  GO 


Railroad   Companies  Favorably 
Consider  Abolition  of  the  Office. 


The  Agents  Held  Responsible  for  De- 
moralization of  Rates— A  Commis- 
sioner for  All  Roads  Suggested. 


If  plans  which  are  now  under  considera- 
tion by  the  roads  terminating  on  the  At- 
lantic seaboard  are  carried  out,  as  they 
probably  will  be,  the  abolition  of  the  so- 
called  import  agents  Is  in  sight,  and  witji 
such  abolition  one  of  the  most  persistent 
causes  Of  rate  demoralization  in,  west- 
bound freight. 

Import  agents  are  those  representatives 
of  American  railroads  who  contract  with 
foreign,*  mainly  European,  shippers  for  the' 
carrying  of  the  merchandise  which  Is  im- 
ported into  the  United  States.  These 
agents  mostly  have  their  offices  abroad  and 
are  well  paid,  as  they  receive  ISl  per  cen.t. 
and  upward  as  commission  on  the  amount 
of  business  they  secure'.  Being  far  away 
from  home  and  hot  withtn  easy  rSiach  of 
the  main  offices  of  the  companies  they 
represent,  it  is  very  difficult,  it  Is  admit- 
ted, to  exercise  much  control  over  them, 
especially  in  the  matter  of  executing  con- 
tracts ahead  for  ■  the  carrying  of  goods. 
*hich  may  not  move  for  months  after  the 
conlra,ct  has  been  made. 

Because  of  these  conditions  and  in  an  ef- 
fort to  secure  as  much  business  as  possible, 
these  agents  resort  to  the  practice  6f  split- 
ting their  commissions  with  the  foreign 
merchants,  thus  dpenlng  up  a  system  of  re- 
ducing rates,  which  generally  results  in 
complete  demoralization  of  the  rates  on  all 
Imported  merchandise,  this  In  turn  affect- 
ing other  west-bound  rates.  This  demorali- 
sation begins  each  year  with  great  regu- 
larity some  lime  In  April,  and  after  It  has 
once  commenced,  spreads  and  continues 
until  all  the  Import  business  /or  the  year 
has  been  contracted  for. 

Efforts  have  been  made  Before  to  stop 
this  rate  disturbance,  but  the  plans  pro- 
posed were  never  executed  because  of  the 
opposition  of  some  of  the "  roads.  These 
roads  have  now  come  together  once  more, 
and  a  meeting  was  held  yesterday  at  which 
every  railroad  was  represented  which  has 
terminals  at  any  harbor  between  Portland, 
Me.,  and  Norfolk,  Va.  A  committee  was 
appointed  to  Investigate  the  matter  and  re- 
port its  conclusions  on  the  various  sugges- 
tions for  improveinents  at  the  next  nieet- 
ing;,  which  Is  to  be  held  on  Sept.  5. 

Tlhe  coramltfee  which  will  commence  Us 
sessdons  nes^ week  is  composed  of  one  rep- 
reSetitatlve  from  each  of  the  following 
Dorts:^Portland.  Me.;  Boston,  Montreal. 
New  York,  Philadelphia,  Baltimore, .  and 
Norfolk.  1 

The  plan  which  is  regarded  with  most, 
favor  by  ihany  of  the  roads  contemplateS'^ 
the^  entire  abolishment  of  all  Import '  agen- 
cies. Instead  there  is  to  be  an  association 
of  the  railroads  concerned  on  the  plan  of 
the  Buffalo  Grain  Committee.  At  the  head 
of  this  association  is  to  be  a  Commissioner, 
or  Chairman,  who  is  to  take  care  that  the 
Interests  of  every  road  are  recognized.  The 
scope  of  this  proposed  association  will  be 
very  much  like  that  of  the  Immigration 
Bureau,  only  that  its  workings  will  be  more 
intricate,  as  required  by  the  nature  Of  the 
business.

ment guaranteeing  union  cond^pns.  Sev- 
eral thousand  more  cloakmakers  will  be  or- 
dered on  strike  to-day  and  to-morrow.

ing, at  wJUch  strikes  were  ordered  against 
a  number  of  other  manufacturers,  to  go 
into  effect  to-day.  Including  cloakmakers

Aeported  that  Two  Amalgamated  Offi- 

'    cials  Went  to  Cleveland  to  See 
\  ■  Senator  Hanna. 


PITTSBT'RG.  July  31— The  steel  workers' 
Btrike  5«alnst  the  United  States  Steel  Cor- 
poration Is  still  unsettled.    The'  status  of 
the  contest  Is  unchansed.    The  men  are 
fighting  for  every  advantage,   while  the 
companies  involved  are  strengthening  their 
^  I>03ltion%  as  much  as  possible.    The  con- 
ference of  the  members  of  the  General 
-.    Executive  Bortrd  of  the  Amalgamated  As- 
■oclatlon,  "which  was   expected  to  settle 
the  trouble  one  waj^  or  the  other  to-day, 
.  adjourned  at  ti  o'clock  to-night  without 
accomplishing  its  purpose. 

It  was  after  11  o'clock  when  the  commit- 
tee finally  got  together.  THree  of  the  of- 
ficials. Secretary  John  "Williiras,  Assistant 
Secretary  M.  •  F.  Tighe,  .  and  National 
Trustee  John  Morgan  were  not  present.  It 
was  subsequently  learned  that  the  three 
absentees  were  out  of  the  city  and  had 
taken  their  departure'  on/early  trains.  It 
was  reported  that  AViIl«ms  •was  in  New 
York  and  the  othetX^c/officials  had  gibne 
to  Cleveland  td*" ««.g'1^nator  Hanna,  but 
they  are  expected  to  be  present  when  the 
board  is  calle'd .  together  to-morrow  m.orn- 
Ing..  President  Sha.ffer  was  called  tp  a 
secret  conference  with  some  one,  supposed 

•  to  be  a  representative  of  the  United  Stfites 
Steel  Corporation,  during  the  early  morning 
hours. 

After  the  meeting  began  -its  formal  pro- 
ceedings, its  discussions  were  apparently 
lifeless.  Much  of  the  time  was  spent  by 
tlje  members  in  wandering  about  the  other 
offices  of  the  organization,  returning  only 
to  take  up  points  that  were  apparently 
.  under  disptite.  At  noon  the  officials  ad- 
Journea  for  lunch.  They  remained  away 
until  after  2  o'clock,  .  and  then  again  took 
up  the  conference  with  the  same  uncertain- 
discussions. 

,  President  Shaffer  was  called  repeatedly, 
to  the  telephone  and  talked  long  with  some 
one  at  the  other  end  of  the  line.  A  recess 
take9  at  frequent  intervals  showed  that 
much  of  the  meeting  was  devoted  to  the 
killing  of  time,  during  the  absence  of  the 
■^officials,  who  were  on  mysterious  missions. 
Joseph  Bishop,  the  Secretary  of  (the  Ohio 
Board  of  Arbitration,  was  present  at  the 
discussions,  to-day.  He  left  the  headquart- 
ers late  in  the  afternoon  without  making 
any  statement. 

At  4  o'clock  President  Shaffer  and  Vice 
President  David  Reese  came  down  stairs 
from  the  offices  and  started  up  Seventh 
AvenUe.  They  were  halted  by  the  news- 
paper men,  and  President  Shaffer  said  that 
he  had  nothing  to  say;. that  there  would  be 
rio  statement  given  out  to.day.  The  two 
officials  started  in  the  direction  of  Union 
Station,  and  the  rumor  at  once  became  cur- 
rent that  they  were  about  to  leav'e  for 
New  York  Instead,  they  took  a  circuitous 
route  to  the  Carnegie  Building,  where  they 
held;  a  brief  consultation  with'  Joseph  E. 
Schwab  and  'Veryl  Preston.  -Bfho  spent  most 
of  the  day  in  the  Carnegie  offices.  'Within 
an  hour  the  two  Amalgamated  men  re- 
tumied  to  the  general  offices  of  the  as- 
sociation. 

Another  Jiour  was  spent  in  the  conference 
room,  and  then  the  meeting  adjourned. 
.  When  President  Shaffer  came  down  -to  go 
home,  he  was  again  asked  for  some  state- 
ment, as  to  the  progress  of  the  conference 
and  the  probability  of  a  settlement.  In  re- 
ply he  said:   i    '  ,  , 

"There  ■will  be  no  statement .  given  out 
to-day.  I  expect  to  call  another  bieetlnB  of 
the  board  to-morrow  at  10  o'clock.  I  will 
be  present  at  this  meeting,  and  will  not  be 
out  of  the  city  to-night." 

All  of  the  other  officials  who  were  at  the 
meeting  during  the  .afternoon  declined  to 
talk  strike.  They  hiirrled  away,  from  the 
building  to  avdld  meeting^  newspaper  men. 
A'bout  the  entrance  of  the  headquarters 
hullding  groups  of  .men  were  gathered  all 
afternoon.  Some  were  members  of  the 
jOTialgamated  A9.<50clatlon  who  were  on 
strikie.  and  interested  in  the  proceedings. 
OiheTs  were  private  detectives  who  watched 
every  move  made  by  President  Shaffer  and 
.  other  leaders  of  the  Amalgamated^Asso- 
ciation.  'Whose  Interests  were  thus  being 
guarded  could  only  be  surmised,  but  the 
Amalgamate  men  firmly  believed  that  the 
watchers  were  fh  the  employ  of  the  manu- 
facturers. President  Shaffer  said  he  kne-w 
of  no  reasbn  for  his  movements  being 
••vatched.  but  became  deeply  interested  in 
the  state  of  affairs  when  told  of  It. 

A  number  of  striking  steel  workers  from 
the  Pittsburg  mills  of  the  American  Steel 
Hoop  Company  were  among  the  watchers 
•^bout  the  head/fluarters.  One  who  claimed 
to  be  among-  the  oldest  members  of  the 
Amalgamateo*- Association,  anrf  who  has 
passed  through  no  less  than  four  gre^t 
.  strikes,  said  he  hoped  the,  strike  would  not 
be  settled  on  the  terms  offered.  He  wanted 

•  the  Issue  fought  to  a  finish  now.  He  said 
that  there  was  no  use  in  temporizing  In  this 
matter,  and  If  the  settlement  was  made 
now  It  would  only  mean  that  It  would  have 

'  to  be  fought  all  over  again  at  some  f utirre 
time.  While  this  striker  spoke  unofficially, 
he  seemed  well  posted  on  .the  situation, 
and  gave  what  appeared  to  be  the  best 

■  e-vldence  of  the  cause  of  the  holding  up 
of  the  settlement  at  this  time. 

Confidence  was  felt  In  some  circles  to- 
day that  the  strike  eventually  would  be 
settled  upon  the  propositions  made  by  Mr. 
Morgan.  The  officials  of  the  steel  com. 
panles  '^rho  have  been  acting  for  the  United 
States  Steel  Corporation  In  this  mattet 
were  apparently  hopeful  and  light-hearted. 
The  delays  in  the  settlement  are  fully  un- 
derstood by  the  Morgan  representatives, 
and'while  all  maintain  tUte  strictest  silence 
regarding  the  matter,  they  are  not  able  to 
conceal  their  feelings  of  contentment  and 
ratlsfactlon  over  the  way  things  are  going. 
One  of  these  officials  remarked  to  a  friend 
to-day  that  if  the  strike  was  not  settled 
hei  would  be  more  thart  surprised.

^jenmtor' Said  He  Helped  Bringr  About 
the   Preaent  Negrotlatlona. 

^  CLEVELAND,  July  31.— 'Up  to  noon  to- 
4ay  newspaper  men  here  had  been  unable 
to  locate-  Messrs.  Morgan  and  Tighe  of  the 
Amalgamated  Association  reported  to 
have  started  from  Pittsburg  for  Cleveland 
last  night.  A  canvass  of  th^  leading  hotels 
at  that  time  showed  that  they  had  not  reg- 
latered. 

Senator  Hanna  did  not  appear  at  his  of- 
fice throughout  the  morning  and  a  report 
was  In  circulation  that  ^  conference  be- 
tween himself  and  the  Amalgamated  rep- 
resentatives had  tak«n  place  at  his  resi- 
dence. He  arrived  at  his  office  , soon  after 
12-  o'clock,  having  come  directly  from  his 
home.  ;'When  asKed  if  he  had  held  a  con- 
ference with  the  Amalgamated  men,  or 
■would  see  thenr  during  the  day,  Mr.  Hanna 
said:. 

"  I  am  not  at  liberty  to  discuss  the  subject 
I  win  neither  deny  nor  confirm'  the  re- 
port that  a  conference  was  held  this  mbrn- 

■^Jng.  It  Is  true  that  1  am  InteresteS  and 
to  some  Atent  directly  connected  with  the 

'.efforts  being, made  to  settle  the  stiike,  but 
It  would  be  foolish .  for  me  to  talk  about 
what  Is  being  done." 


TRUST  MEN  IN  CONFERENCE. 

J.  P.  Morgan,  Robert  Bacon,  Charles. 
Steele,  Charles  M.  Schwab,  and  E.  H.  Gary 
■were  In  conference  several  times  yesterday 
on  the  strike  situation,  but  no  statement 
o^any  nature  was  made  by  any  Steel  Trust 
rfficial,  ■with  the  singly  exception  of  the 
ollowlng  remark  by  one  of  the  financiers 
Interested  in. the  outcome  of  the  trouble: 
"  Everybody  thought  on  Saturday  that 
Mr.  Shaffer  would  be  able  to  obtain  the  rat- 
ification of  his  men  for  the  agreement  he 
made  with  Mr.  Morgan,  but  it  begins  to 
look  as  If  Mr*  Shaffer  could  lidt  do  wUat 
he  had  agreed  to  do."

FATAL  TENEMENT  FIRL 

Three    Deaths   in    Brooklyn — Fireinen 
Prevented  by  Smoke  from  Rescu- 
j      ing  the  Victims. 

Three  lives  were  lost  and  one  person 
severely  .and  perhaps  fatally  injured  In  a 
fire  at  .370  Gold  Street.  Brooklyn  yesterday 
morning.  The  fire  itself  did  not  amount  to 
much,  the  da?nage  to  the  property  not 
.  exceeding  $1,500,  but  a  very  thiols  smoke 
was  responsible  for  the  loss  of  life. 

The  dead  are  James  McCoy,  forty-five,  a 
painter;  his  soon  William,  sixteen,  and  his 
daughter  Edna,  eleven  years  old.  Mrs. 
Mary  McCoy,  his  wife.  Is  at  the  Brooklyn 
Hospital  suffering  from  i  Injuries,  the  re- 
sult of  a  fall  she  sustained  in  an  attempt 
to  lower  Aerself  to  the  ground.  The  hos- 
pital authorities  do'  not  expect  her  to  ,  re- 
cover. The  only  member  of  the  family  who 
escaped  without  injury  was  Ellen,  fourteen 
years  old.  who  -was  lowered  from  a  window 
to  the  ground  by  her  mother. 

The  building  In  which  the  fire  occurred 
is  a  three-story  brick  house. ,  situated  be- 
tween Myrtle  Avenue  and  Willoughby 
Street,  and  was  formerly  a  private  resi- 
dence. It  Is  now  let  out  In  flats,  but  Is 
not  supplied  with  fire  ^scapes..  There  were 
tour  families  in  the  house. 

Nobody  knows  just  how  the  fire  started. 
John  FllentI,  who,  with  his  wife  and  two 
children,  lives  on  the  second  floor,  -was 
awakened  by  a  sense  of  suffocation,  and 
he  aroused  the  McCoys,  Who  lived  on  the 
top  floor.  Mrs.  McCoy  let  her  daughter 
down,  and  then,  tying  a  rope  around  her 
waist,  jumped  out;  As  she  fell  her  body 
struck  the  coping  of  the  windows  on  the 
floors  below  and  she  bounded  but.  At  the 
sam^  time  the  rope  broke  and  she  fell  on 
the  picket  fence,  where  she  was  impaled 
by  one  of  the  Iron  spikes.  When  removed 
she  was  unconscious. 

The  street  at  this  point  is  undergoing  re- 
pairs, and  the  paving  has  been  torn  up. 
One  of  the  engine?,  strucif  a  projecting 
manhole,  causing  several  of  the  firemen  to 
be  thrown  off.  None  of  them  was  hurt, 
however.  ■  ■ 

It  was  discovered  that  McCoy  and  his 
two  children  had  not '  escaped.  The  fire- 
men ran  their  ladders  up  to  the  third  story 
and  tried  to  enter,  but  the  'smoke  drove 
them  back.  Finally  they  lowered  the  lad- 
ders, and  running  them  through  the  hall 
to  the  rear  of  the  building  entered  easily, 
the'  wind  blowing  the  smoke  through  the 
front .  windows.  Here  they  found  McCoy 
lying  on  the  floor  unconscious,  with  his 
son  and  daughter  close  beside  i  him. 

The  ambulance  surgeon  who  responded  to 
the  call  refused  to  take  the  child  Edna,  as 
he  believed^  her  to  be  dead.  After  the 
ambulance  had  gone  with  her  brother  and 
father,  however,  she  showed  signs  of  life. 
She  was>  placed  In  a  patrol  wagon  and  hur- 
ried to  the  hosplt^,  but  died  on  the  way. 
The  father  and  son  both  died  soon  after 
arriving  in  the  hospital  without  rsgalnlng 
consciousness.

a  Deputy  Sheriff  was  who  wanted  him  on 
a  warrant  obtained  by  William  Toole,  who 
charges  that  he  Invested  $2,000  with  the 
Broker  and  received  no  return. 

Abraham  Gruber,  who  appeared  for 
Paine,  said  that  his  client,  was  111  -from 
nervous  prostration,  and  had  been  forced 
to  leave  the  city.  He  promised  to  pro- 
duce him  whenever  asked  to  do  so,  and  the 
case  was  adjourned  until  Sejpt.  4. 


CUP  YACHTS^  R^E  TO-DAY. 

Columbia  and  Independence  Ready  for 
Their  Final  Series  Off  Newport. 

Special  to  The  Ntw  York  Timis. 

NE-WPORT,  R.  I.,  Julw  81.-The  meeting 
of  Columbia  and  IndecAidence  to-morrow 
In  the  first  race  of  'the  Newport  Yacht 
Racing  -  Association  is  the  paramount  Issue 
here  to-night,  and  yachtsmen  are  Impa- 
tiently awaiting  the  developments  that  a 
day  liiay  bring  forth.  Since  her  last  races 
Boston's '  candidate  has  been  much  Im- 
proved, and  her  constituency  are  exceed- 
ingly hopeful  of  her  giving  a  good  account 
of  herself  to-morrow  and  contributing  her 
share  to  making  the  selection  of  a,  cup  de- 
fender still  more  difficult. 

Dr.  John  Bryant  will  have  charge  of  the 
Lawson  yacht,  and  C.  H.  W.  Forster 
and  Designer's.  B.  Crownlnshleld  will  also 
be  on  board  to  ido  what  they  can  toward 
the  success  of  the  Boston  champion.  Dr. 
Bryant  said  to-night  that  Independence  Is 
expected  to  show  a  great  Improvement. 
Twq  and  a  half  tons  of  ballast  have  been 
removed  from  her,  and  she  has  a  new  set 
of  headsalls.  "Qer  lee  helm  difficulty  has 
also  been  overcome,  and  where  she  for- 
merly needed  two  men  at  the  helm,  one 
man  can  now  handle  her  In  going  to 
windward  with  one  spoke. 

She  had  a  trial  spin  on  the  programme 
for  to-day,  but  lack  of  breeze  and  threat- 
ening clouds  caused  a  postponemenli.  Her 
mainsail,  however,  was  sent  up  ajid  her 
No.'  2  club  topsail,  and  men  were  aloft 
for  several  hours  overhauling  and  test-' 
Ing  the  rigging.  Measurer  John  Hyslop 
will  measure  her  before  the  races  In  the 
morning.  It  Is  thought  that  her  racing 
measurement  will  be  ^preclably  reduced 
by  the  changes  made  in  her  sails  and 
ballast. 

Columbia's  sails  were  also  sent  up  for 
a  while,  and  the  badly  fitting  club  topsail, 
which  handicapped  her  In  her  last  -race, 
was  recut,  so  the  old  champion  Is  In  the 
finest  possible  condition  for  a  killing  race; 

Constitution  at  sunrise  this  morning  was 
towed  to  'Bristol  by  the  tender  Mount 
Morris,  which  returned  afterward  with 
Capt.  Duncan.  An  effort  wa»  made  to  get 
Capt.  Job  Terry  and  the  derrick  boat 
Archer  to  Bristol  In  the  morning  In  order 
^o  unsteP  Constitution's  mast,  but^  Capt. 
Terry  was  busy  and  the  mast  cannot  be 
lifted  out  of  her  until  Friday  morning. 
Capt.  Duncan  says,,  however,  that  she  will 
be  ready  by  Aug.  8.  S.  Nicholson  Kane, 
Chairman  of  the  Regatta  Committee,  an- 
nounced to-night  that  the  Newport  series 
of  races  of  the  club  for  the  cup  yachts 
and  all  classes  of  schooners,  sloops,  and 
yawls  win  be  sailed  here  on  Aug.  10,  12, 
and  14.  . 

The  races  tO-morrow  of  the  Newport 
Yacht'  Racing  Association  will  be  sailed 
under  the  ' racing  rules  classification  meas- 
urement and  time  allowance  of  the  New 
York  Yacht  Club,  with  no  time  limit  and 
a  one-gup  start  In  each  class.  The  course 
will  be  an  equilateral  triangle,  ten  miles 
to  the  teg,  the  start  and  flnl.?h  to  be  across 
a  line  between  the  committee  boat  and 
Brenton '  Seef  Lightship,  the  compass 
courses  to  be  signaled  from  the  committee 
boat,  the  triangle  to  be  turned  on  the  out- 
side of  the  marks,  leaving, them  to  port  or 
starboard,  according  as  the  yachts  are  sent 
around.  The  warning  signal  'will  be  given 
at  11  o'clock  A.  M.  • 

In  addition  to  the  ninety-foot  sloops,  the 
yawls  Navahoe,  Allsa,  and  'Vigilant  will 
race  for  a  special  cup-,  as  -will  the  English 
cutters  Eelln,  Hester,  Isolde,  and  Senta 
sod  the  sehoonen  Qulssetta  and  Slmina. 


Reginald  and  .  Alfred  G.  "Vanderbilt  -will 
make  their  dfibut  In  the  polo  'tournament 
competition  on  Tuesday,  Aug.  13,  on  tlie 
field  of  the  Westchester  Polo  Club  at  New- 
port. The  event  In  -w;hlch  they  will  be  seen 
will  be  the  first  for  the  Newport  cups,  tjie 
second  set  of  trophies  which  will  be  played 
for  in  August  in  the  annual  Newport  tour- 
nament of  the  'Westchester  Polo  Club.  The 
Vanderbilt  boys  will  compose  half  of  the 
famous  Westchester  Polo  Club  of  Newport, 
and  it  will  be  the  first  appearance  of  that 
club  in  a  polo  game  this  year.  With  the 
"Vanderbllt's  will  be  H.  H.  Hunnewell  of 
Boston,  playlAg  at  No.  1,  while  I.  To-wn- 
send  Burden,  Jr.,  or  Peter  Martin  ■will  play 
at  back.  -The  latter  is  the  San  Fran- 
cisco clubman  whose  engagement  to  Mifes 
Oelrlchs  has  lately  been  announced.  He 
has  been  pIaylng<polo  on  the  Newport  field 
for  the  past  month.  , 

Reginald  and  Alfred  'Vanderbilt  have 
taken  up  polo  this  season,  and  on  their 
Portsmouth  farm,  near  Newport,  they  have 
been  practicing  considerably.  .  They  are 
rated  at  two  goals  handicap  each,  and  their 
advent  Into  the  game  Is  another  vivid  ex- 
ample of  the  enthuslasni  taken  by  the 
young  set  this  season.  With  the  Vander- 
bllts  ap  regular  players  on  the  Westchester 
Club's  team,  its  old  sporting  and  social 
prestige  will  speedily  return.  This  West- 
chester Club  jpust  not  be  confounded  with 
the  Country  Club  of  Westctfester.  The 
Newport  organization  is  made  up  of  mem- 
bers from  several  clubs  who  "spend  their 
Summers  In  that  resort.  All  of.  its  mem- 
bers are  in  other  polo  clubs,  and  it  is  only 
In  the  Newport  tournament  that  this.  West- 
chester Club  plays  a  prominent  part  in  the 
game,  although  in  past  years  It  used  to  en- 
ter a  strong  quartet  for  the  championship. 

The  coming  Newport  tournament  will  also 
be  characterized  by  the  first  appearance  of 
Foxhall  Keene  and  Harry  Payne  Whitney 
jthls  year  In  American  polo.  Unusual  inter- 
est, therefore,  will  be  centred  upon  the  com- 
ing games,  and  as 'Keene  has  been  playing 
for  several  months  in  England,  he  will  un- 
doubtedly be  in  his  best  form.  He  will 
make  his  initial  appearance  on  the  Lake- 
wood  Club  team,  which  will  be  new  colors 
for  him.  Keene  joined  George  Gould's  club 
a  short  time  ago,  and  he  will  play  for  Lake- 
wood  in  the  coming  championship  tourna- 
ment at  Brookllne.  He  recently  shipped 
several  of  his  best  polo  ponies  from  Eng- 
land, and  his  brother-in-law,  Talbot  J. 
Taylor,  said  yesterday  that  F6xhall  Keene 
was  a  passenger  en  the  steamer  Celtic, 
which  should  arrive  Saturday  or  Sund£Ly. 
After  spending  a  few  dayis  at  Cedarhurst, 
Keene  will  go  to  Newport  and  do  a  little 
playing  over  the  field  previous  to  the  tour- 
nament.!- .  '  , 

•The  Lakewood  Club  will  enter  in  ^the 
event  the  strongest,  quartet  that  has  been 
seen,  on  the  polo«f leld  this  season.  Keene 
is  rated  at  ten,  tne  only  man  In  the  asso- 
ciation at  that  figure  except  Thomas  Hitch- 
cock. Jr.  With  him  will  be  Lawrence 
Waterbury  and  J.  M.  Waterbury,  Jr.,  each 
at  eight  handicap,  and  who  are(,iiow  at  the 
top  of  their  gatne,  while  Robert  J.  Collier 
will  complete  che  team.  He  has  five  han- 
dicap, and  the  total  will  be  thirty-one.  The 
Myopia  CluWof  Boston  will  have  6.  quartet 
In  the  Newport  games  aggregating  twenty- 
nine.  The  Newport  programme,  therefore, 
promises. to  be  the  most  brilliant  in  polo 
results  and  social  Interest  of  anj^  tourna- 
ment this  year,  and  It  Is  quite  likely  that 
the  two  Vanderbllts  may  enter  for  the 
Junior  championship  at  Brookllne  early  In 
September. 

The  drawings  for  the  Newport  tourna- 
ment were  completed  yesterday  at  the  of- 
fice of  the  Chairman  of.  the  Polo  Associa- 
tion, H.  L.  Herbert,  at  15  Church  Street. 
'The  events  will  follow  Immediately  after 
the  Point  Judith  games,  which  are  now  In 
progress.  There  will  be  tw.o  sets  of  tro- 
phies, the  Westchester  Cups  and  the  New- 
port Cups.  The  former  are  oi>en  to  compe-' 
tltlon  regardless  of  handicap,  while  the  lat- 
ter are  limited  to  teams  on  which  no  player 
shall  have  more  than,  six  goals  allowance. 
There  will  be  eight  playing  days,  five  for 
the  Westchester  Cup  and  three  for  the  oth- 
ers. Ther  dates  and  teams  with  Individual 
handicaps  are^

NARRAGANSETT  PIER,  R.  L,  July  31.— 
In  an  exciting  game  In  ihe  series  of  polo 
matches  for  the  Narragansett  cups,  the 
Country  Club  of  Westchester  defeated 
Myopia  to-day,  15  to  14,  overtime'  play 
being  necessary  to  decide  the  game.  Agasr 
siz  and  Shaw  were  the  stars  for  Myopia, 
and  J.  M.,  Waterbury  did  the  best  ■work 
for  'W'estchester.  Agasslz  was  thrown  from 
his  pony  shortly  after  the  start,  but  was 
not  Injured.  There  was  great  applause 
■when  J.  M.  Waterbury  made  a  goal  In  the 
third  perjod  an4  tied  the  score.  In  the 
fourth  period  evsT  man  played  a  wonder- 
ful game.  Shaw  put  the  ball  through  West- 
clii'ster's  goal  under  the  ponies  grouped  in 
front  of  it.  Agasslz  made  a  fine  shot  froita 
centrefield,  fegain  tying  the  score  11  to  11. 
J.  M.  Waterbury  made  a  splendid  back 
drive  while  on  the  dead  run.  The  fourth 
period  closed  with  the  score  tied  14  to  14. 
After  a  short  delay,  play  was.  resumed,  and

LORILLARD  COLORS  CLAIMED. 


-  ■■•  The  racing  colors  made  famoiis  in  Amer- 
ica and  England  by  Pierre  LortUard',  cherry- 
jacket  with  black  whips  on  the  sleeves  and 
black,  cap,  with  a  gold  tassel,  have  been  .re- 
registered with  The  Jockey  Club  under  fhe 
assumed  name  of  "  The  -Rancocas  Stable," 
the  registry  being  .made  for  life  by  -the 
new  owner  upon  payment  of  $25,  while  the- 
owner's  Identity  is  concealed  under  the 
name  of  the  Rancocas  Stable  by  the  pav.- 
ment  of  the  fee  of  $50  fixed  by  The  Jockey 
Club  for  the  right  to  race  horses  under  a 
name  other  than  that  of  the  Individual  -who 
wishes  to  assume  a  racing  name.  Both 
jM!gIstratIons '  were  In  full  keeping  with 
'racing  rules,  ahd  as  under  the  rules  The 
Jockey  Club  conceals  the  names  of  per- 
son.s  wishing  to  race  under  assumed  names, 
there  Is  much'mystery  concerning  the  Iden- 
tity of  the  claimant  to  the  title, of  the  Ran- 
cocas Stable,  that  name  having  been  bor- 
rowed from  the  great  breeding  establish- 
ment founded  by  Mr,  Lorlllard  at  Jobstown, 
N.  J.  '  ' 

According  to  report,  the  claimant  and  the 
Owner  of  the  racing  stable  that  will  he 
known  as  the  Rancocas  Stable  Is  Mrs.  LllUe 
Barnes-  Allien,  to  whom  Pierre  LorlWard 
left  the  Bnncocas  farm.  Concerning  this 
report  the  Secretary  of  The  Jockey  Club 
woMld  make  no  statemenf  aa  to  w'hether  r : 
not  Mrs.  Allien  had  registered  the  name 
of  the  Rancocas  Stable.  . 

Several  turfmen,  who  were  familiar  with 
Mv.  Lorillardts  turf  affairs,  said  that,  while 
they  expected  Mr.  Lorlllard's  sons  ' to  en- 
gage In  racing,  they  were  quite  certain 
that  so  far  the  ygung  men  had  made  no 
arrangements  for  the  establishment  ot  a 
racin.g  stable,  either  by  the  purchasd'^of 
hiu-ses  or  by  securing  breeding  stock.  It 
was  .said,  however,  that  it  was  possible 
that  the  sons  might  have  registered  the 
colors  of  their  father  Jind  claimed  the 
name  of  the  farm  which  he  had  made  fa- 
mous, with  the  view  to  preventing  some 
other  per.<!on  from .  adopting  the  name  of 
Rancocas  and  racing  in  the  Lorlllard  colors.

YESTERDAY'S  BASEBALL  GAMES 

special  to  The  New  York  Tims." 
BOSTePr,  July'31.— The  .New  York  base- 
ball team  lost  Its  flft^  straight  game  to 
the  Bostons  to-day.  Lack  of  confidence.  In- 
ability to  hit  with  men\on  the  bases!  and 
wretched  base  runnltig^  were  the  causes 
which  brought  about  defeat.  After  the 
fcurth  Inning  New  York  succeeded  In  get- 
ting but  one  man  to  first  base,  and  he  was 
hit  by  the  pitcher.  This  was  in  the-'elghth 
Inr.lng,  and  Dehzer,  the  man  hit  had  to  le- 
tire  frdm  the  game,  Phyle  leplaclng  him. 
Denzer  had  pitched  fine  ball  for  New  York, 
but  Boston  had  no  trouble  in  b?,ttlng  Phyle 
in  the  one  Inning  pitched'  by  him.  Both 
teams  played  a  snappy  game  In  the  field.  •• 
Boston  succeeded  In  getting  a  man  across 
the  plate  in  the  first  InnMag  otl  lTteil*le!?'s 
two-base  hit,  Demont's  single,  and  Cooley's 
fly  to  McBrlde.  No  further  scoring  was 
done  until  the  seventh  Inning,  when  Mur- 
phy's sln.srle,  a  passed  ball,  ahd  Long's  safe 
hit  sent  another  run  In.  Phyle  sent  Willlsi 
to  first  on  balls  In  the  eighth  Inning,  and 
Slagle  helped  him  to  second  by  sacrificing. 
Demont's  single  placed  him  on  th'rd,  and

Murphy.   The  score:  .

PHILADELPHIA,  3;   BROOKLYN,  0. 

The  Phlladelphias  evened  up  things  by 
taklns  yesterday's  baseball  game  from  the 
Brooklyn  s  at  Washington  Park  by  the 
score  of  3  to  0.  Brooklyn  had  several  op- 
portunities to  score,  but  the  hit  heeded 
could  not  be  made,  -Townsend,  the  Philar 
delphia  pitcher,  holding  the  Brooklyns 
down  to  three  hits.  Philadelphia  made  but 
eight  hits  off  Donovan,  who  pitched  a 
good  game)  though  he  weakened  a  little 
toward  the  finish.  DahlenI  completed  A 
pretty  double  play  In  the  sixth  Inning  by 
catching  a  lliie  fly  from  Wolvertbn's  bat 
and  touching  Thomas,  who  was  running  to 
second. 

The  Philadelphia's  first  run  was  scored 
on  singles  by  Wolverton,  Flick,  and  Mc- 
Farland,  their  second  on  Dahlen's  poor 
throw,  a  satrlflce  by  Thomas,  and  Wolv.er- 
ton's  single,  and  their  final  tally  on  Jen- 
nings's single,  a  Wild  pitch,  aijd  Hallman'a 
fly  to  Keeler.  IChe  score"

The  "once  upon  a  time"  when  favorites 
won  the  majority ,  of  races  at  Brighton 
^l^fch'  race  track  seenriingly  has  passed 
with  other  things  that  happgned  "  once 
upon  a  lime,"  but  the  faith  of  the  Brighton 
Beach  regulars  remains  firm  as  adamant. 
With  the  persistence  of  unwavering  belief , 
those  regulars  were  on  hand  yesterday, 
filled  with  conviction  ai  the  track  was 
with  mud,  undeterred  by  the  difficulty  of 
picking  winners  where  all  the  horses  that- 
ran  seemingly  were  of  a  (3ass,  and  with  but 
one  Idea  before  them  and-  that  to  "  follow 
the  money,"  which  Is  the  policy  of  Brighton 
Beach:  regular  In  epitome.  The,  way  was 
long  and  full  of  trouble,  but  It  led  to  relief 
at  last,  for  one  favorite  did  win  though  it 
took  the  entire  afternoon  to  I'each  that  cul- 
mination of  hopes,  Charagrace  in  the  sixth 
and  last  race  of  the  day  getting  to  the  win- 
ning po9t  first,  and  rescuing  all  who  had 
money  and  faith  enough  to  last  that  long. 

Before  Charagrace  saved  the  day  five^ 
popular  favorites  had  been  beaten,  begln- 
ning\  with  Animosity ,  and  ending  withVa 
double,  disaster  when  Brandy  Smash  and 
Ante  Up,  equal  choices  in  the  fifth  race, 
were  beaten  out  by  the  erratic  Connie  froin, 
W.  C.  Daly's  stable. 

That  even  one  choice  was  successful  In 
the  eftd  was  due  much  to  the  art  of  Jockey 
Spencer  on  Charagrace,  for  the  rider  very 
plainly  outwitted  Burns,  who  rode  The 
Chamberlain,  the  pacemaker  for  a  mile  and. 
a  quarter  of  the  mile  and  a  half  race  for 
hurdle  and  steeplechase  horses.  .  The 
Chamberlain  seenled  to  have  the  race  won 
at  the  last  turn,  where  he  was  galloping 
in  front  with  the  others  air  driving  behind 
him.  Then  It  was  that  Spencer,  by  appear- 
ing to  be  having  a  vast  .amount  more 
trouble  than '  he  reaHy  was  -  having  on 
Charagrace,  Induced  Burrfs  on  The  Cham- 
berlain to  pull  up,  under  the  Impression 
that  he  had  the  race  safe.  Then  Spencer 
closed  with  a  rush  on  the  stretch,  and, 
catching  The  Chamberlain  close  on  the 
post,  won  with  Charagrace  by  a  neck. 

Animosity,  best  backed  in  the  opening 
event,  could  do  no  better  than  second  to 
the  much  Improved  horse  Disturber,  who, 
after  havlngkwoh  a  maiden  race  a  few  days 
ago,  achieved  his  third  straight  win  by 
fflaking  all  the  running  and  galloping  home 
first  by  three  lengths.  Disadvantage, 
bought  by  A.  Featherstohe  the  day  before 
for  ?10,(XiO,  paid  for  herself  In  her  new 
owner's  bets,  by  winning  In  .lier  first  ap- 
pearance In  the  Featherstone  colors,  after 
Francesco  had  made  the  running  for  about 
five  furlongs. 

Arden  was  In  front  from  end  to  end  In 
the  third  race,  and  cle.verly  won  from  Mon- 
arka,  while  In  the  fourth  race  the  Futurity 
winner  of  189G',  Ogden,  who  was  disgrace- 
fully beaten  only  the  flay  before  by  the 
fllly  Smoke,  went  out  in  front  »nd  simply 
romped  away  from  a  fair  lot  of  horses,  in- 
cluding 'the  second  horse  In  the  Subui;ban 
Handicap,  Watercure,  who  was'  favorite 
-because  of  hts  performance  In  that  race  In 
heavy*golng:  At  the  end  Intrusive  brought 
i^Ogden  to  a.  drive,  but  there  -n-as  nevgr  any 
■  real  danger  that  Ogden  wrcfald  not  win. 
.  .Connie,  who. always  has  sfca^eed  speed  In 
Iier  races,  also  showed  the  disposition  to 
stay  In  the  fifth  race  and  won  all  the  way.

S^urdays  at  12  6'clock  Noon 


Now  in.  t^e  eo&ibined  stocks  controlled  by  pur  two  stores.  ,< 
'  ,         These  figures  are  produced  by  the  vast  preparations  for  our  gree:est  ' 

August  I  Trade  Sale 


Which  Begins  Today 


Our  preparations  are  almost  beyond  the  conception  of  ordinary 
retailing— gigantic  and  startling  to  even  those  who  sell  fi^niture,  and  who 
marvel  at  our  August  Trade  Sales. 

A  dozen  years  ago  we  inaugurated  in  Philadelphia  the  unheard-of 
idea  of  buying  furniture  away  ahead  of  the  public  demand,  and  when  manu- 
facturers at  certain  dull  periods  of  the  year  at  their  works,  were  glad  to  sell  at  the  bare 
cost  of  the  making.    ,  1^  ^ 

It  looked  like  a  disastrous  undertaking  40  those  who  knew  the  furniture  business 
best;  but  who  had  riot  tested  human  nature,  and  the  dynamic  power  of  redl  economy 
when  ft  was  made  to  rightly  appeal  to  thrift.  -  '  - 

How  well  the  movement  prospered  is  best  evidencea  oy  the  popularity  of  imitation  sales  to- 
day— but  sales  which  need  no  comment  from  us  when  the  opportunity  for  compdrissn-is  open. 

Nowhere  else  is  the  vital  power  of  the  Wanamaker  movement-^the  ability  to  buy  out  factories 
entire— to  take  fine  goods  a§  well  as  cheap;  and  to  distribute  the  large  quantiti^  so  quickly  that  scaiit 
profit  and  no  loss  is  added  to  the  extremely  low  prices  that  manufacturers  are  willing  to  accept 
at  these  occasions.  , 

We  are  spurred  forward — not  by.  competition,  but  by  our  own  splendid  records  of  the  past, 
and  the  knowledge  of  what  you  are  expecting  from  us.  .1 

Each  year  is  a  stepping  stone  to  more  masterful  accomplishment.  The  successes  of  the  past 
are  incentives  to  greater  effort.  The  experiences  and  alliances  that  made  other  years  great  give  riper 
knowledge  and  more  mature  power  for  the  success  of  the  present  movement. 

This  year  we  h^e  many  thousands  of  dollars  worth  bf  fine  Furniture,  from'  factories  which 
would  not  co-operate  with  us  before- — goods  of  a  character  never  seen  previously  in  an  under-price 
sale,  except  perhaps  a  few  odd  pieces  in  some  dealer's  clean-up.  ^  ^ 

The  scope  of  the  August  mg^lflj^lit  has  broadened  marvelously.  This  year  lines  of  furniture 
are  betteri  fuller,  completer— -qiialit3r-is  hig|her,  prices  are  lower  than  ever  before.  • 

This  is  partly  because  we  have  learned  more — largely  because  manufacturers  have  learned 
more'about^s,  and  the  benefit  of  co-operating  with  us.,  /  ,,|  .  " 

Factories  would  be  clogged,  plans  bf  manufacturers  hampered,  wood-workers  idle  and  un- 
certain, without  the  direct  help  and  encouragement  of  this  August  Furniture  movement. 

It  paysVto  keep  the  factory  floors  clear,  the  outlook  bright,  employes  busy;  and  manufacturers 
are 'willing  and  anxious  to  pay  ^berally  for  the  bringing  ab^

•  COLUMBUS,  Ohio,  July  .  31.— Perfect 
Weather  and  the  )f.Te,e3t  crowd  of  the  week 
greeted  the  Grand  Circuit  perfornJors  at 
the  driving  parlc  this  afternoon.  Last 
night's  rain  put  the  track  in  excellent  con- 
dition, and  all  three,  heat  wlnhers  In  the 
2:09  pace  broke  their  records,  as  did  On- 
ward Silver,  winner  of  the  2:12  trot.  The 
racing  was  by  far  ttie  best  of  the  meeting, 
and  thousands  of  dollars  went  into  the  pool 
box.  .  ~  ■ 

The  first  race,  the  2:09  pace,  went  to 
Stacker  Tayler,  who  gave  one  of  the  gam- 
est  exhibitions  ever  seen  at  tbe  track. 
George  was  a  ^strong  favorite  over  the 
other  seven  starters,  selling  at  50  to  80  for 
the  field,  with  Carmine  as  second  choice. 

The  champion  trotter,  Cresceus,  arrived 
at  the  track  from  Cleveland  to-day.  He 
was  paraded  in  'rorit  of  the  stand  late  in 
the  afternoon,"  and  was  given  a  tremendous 
ovation.  He  wilt  start  against  his  record  of 
'^-.02%  on  Friday.  Mr.  Maries,  manager  of 
The  Abbot,  will  arrive  KfTe  to-morrow  to 
decide,  definitely  whether  his  horse  shall 
jSeet  Cresceus  at  Brighton  Beach  week 
after  next  or  not.  SuiBipary:

hundi^d  thousand  dollars'  worth. 

Everything  at  Reductions  of     to  5^. 

\        SALE  OPENS  PKOWI^TLY  THIS  THURSDAY  WORmNG.  -  \ 

This  August  sale  has  become  an  annual  event  with  us— a5  sure  in 
it5*comirig  as  the  return  erf' the  season—as  sure  in  its  ealarged  benefits 
to  you  as  the  payment  of  the  best  Government  bpnd  *  . 

.  The  reasons  for  it,  its  general  management,  its  business  metho^is 
do  notiliffer  materiily  from  bur  previous  sales.   But  sin^e  progress'. 
*  njevej;  quite  repeats  itself,  its  extent,  scope,  conveniiences  and  real  price 
advantages  far  excel  anjrthing  that  has  gone  before.  • 
For  several  reasons  we  have  beep  able  to  buy  cheaper,  than  a  year 
,  ago.   Immense  growth  in' our  ygarly  businesses  not  only  given  us 
greater  ()urchasing  power  but  haS'enlarg6^'-c(uantities"^and  extended 
assortments.  Shortcomings  have  been  eoitected  and  con venien ces  in- 
creased. By  the  addition  recently  of  the  .well-known  "Universal  Build- 
ing" on  NVashington  Street  we  haye  greatly  improved  our  facilities  for 
sorting  up,  for  storage  and  for  -shipping,  making  (^i^play  easier  and 
delivery  more  prompt.  . 

Now,  there's  a  time  to  buy  furniture,  just  as  there's  a  time  to  buy 
fruit  foryour  home  canning.  And  when  we  tell  you  that  this  will  be 
the  last  ^ale^this  yeah  at  which  we  will  make  reductions- of  j<  to  >^  upon 
X  our  entire  stock,  there^can  be  no  disputing  that  it  is  the  hacvest  tinje 
'for  furniture  buying.  .This rdiuction  applies  toevery  piece Inlhis  great 
collection, of  over  300,000  dollars'  worth."  Everything  plainly  marked 
with  the  regular  and  reduced  prides.   It  means  '         ^  • 

A  Saving  of  25c  to  50e.  on  every  $1  ,QQ^§^worth  you  buy 

or  $2^00  to  $50.00  on  every  $i00's  worth,  or  J2jb.00  to  $Voo.OO  on  every' |T,OCfc)'s  worth.  That  is  a  discount 
from  regular  prices;  prices  which  will  bear  comparispn  with  those  anywhere  in  this  country. 

As  for  the  furniture  itself,  the  best  we  have  is  an  index  to  the  quality  of  ^ll,  from  the  simplest  to  the 
elaborately  rich.  .  :  , 

Our  preparations  have  never  been  equalled,  even  to  the  knowing  that  the  woods  were  the  best  and  the 
properlyseasoned— the  designs  new,  original  and  artistic— the  coverings  beaufiful,  fashionable  and  exclusive— the 
barvingsrarmonious,  tasteful  and  skilfully  executed.  In  short,  we  have  never  had  a  better,  more  .interesting  or 
practical  display.  Goods  that  defy  the  severest  criticism.

THE  "  policy  ''  of  THE  N.  Y,  C.  R.  R. 

President  Newman  has  the  reputation 
of  being  a  discreet  man,  but  It  Is  not 
eonsistent  with  this  reputation  that  he 
should  promise  more  than  he  expects  or 
intends'  to  perform.  It  Is  consequently  a 
matter  of  some  surprise  that  Mr.  New- 
man should  within  a  few  days  have  said 
officially:  "It  stands  to  j^ason  that  as 
j  a  matter  of  business  policy  we  are  ex- 
/  ceedingly  anxious  to  remedy  the  condi- 
tions coltiflained  of  [in  the  Parle  Ave- 
nue tunnel]  at  the  earliest  possible  time. 
Jn  the  conduct  of  %  railroad  it  pays  to  dft 
everything  that  will  conduce  to  the  com- 
fort and  safety  of  passengers,  and  that 
Is  our  policy." 

Mr.  Newman  has  not  very  long  been 
President  of  the  corporation  for  which 
he  spealts,  and  perhaps  he  has  not  offi- 
cially outlived  the  enthusiasm  which  his 
promotion  to  that  dignified  and  responsi- 
ble office  would  naturally  excite.  In  the 
remarks  above  quoted  he  recognizes  a 
truth  which  in  railroad  circles  is  regard- 
ed as  axiomatic:  }iut  he  also  commits  his 
company  to  a  policy  distinctly  at  vari- 
ance with  its  traditions  and  fixed  habits. 
In  the  case  of  the  New  Tork  Central, 
much  of  that  which  in  more  progressive 
corporations  "  goes  without  sayirjg,"  does 
not  "  go  "  at  aU,  or  only  after  much  say- 
ing. 

As  long  ago  as  1890  the  Increase  of 
,trafSc  by  the  northern  anji  eastern 
routes  had  taxed  the  tunnel  to  its  capac- 
ity and  produced  conditions  under  which 
the  ventilating  system,  originally  deemed 
adequate,  broke  down  completely  and  be- 
came worthless  for  the  purpose  of  main- 
taining a  breathable  atmosphere.  This 
.condition  was  not  suddenly  reached,  and 
should  not  have  occasioned  surprise 
when  it  was  recognized.  Speaking  broad- 
ly, fhe  management  of  the  Central  have 

.  had  at  least  fifteen  years'  for  the  consid- 
eration of  the  problem  of  promoting  the 
safety  and  comfort  of  their  passengers, 
and  if  they  can  be  taken  at  their  word 
they  are  no  nearer  a  solution  of  it  to-day 

■  than  they  were  at  the  outset.  This  tends 
to  detract  very  much  from  the  force  of 
what  ^r.  Newman  has  to  say  officially 
'  on  the  subject,  and  warrants  skepticism 
as  to  whether,  in  telling  the  public  what 
"  stands  to  reason  "  in  railroad  manage- 
ment he  does  not  make  omental  reserva- 
tion to  the'effect  that,  in  the  case  of  the 
New  Tork  Central,  business  axioms  do 
-not  count.- 

It  is  quite  probable  that  no  plan  of 
tunnel  improvement  which  has  thils]  far 
been  suggested  exactly  meets  the  views 
of  ''the  C.entral  management.  It  Is 
equally  true  that  no  plan  ever  will  be 

.  suggesteil^ which  they  will  be  prepared 
to  accept  as  satisfactory  in  4ill  its  de- 
tails. The  promise'  they  are  so  ready  to 
make  that  when  such  a  plan  1b  offered 
■  them  they  will  gladly  adopt  It  is  like  the 
promise  sometimes  made  to  children  tOj-gj^g^^gg 

•  compensate  them  ior  deprSvatlons.J,r^  ^^jj;,^^^^^ 
'first  dollars  which  are  found  rolling  up  -  ..-/^ 
hill.  We  have  listened  to  this  kind  of 
talk  ad  nauseam.  The  tunnel  in  its  pres- 
ent coiidition  is  an  intolerable  public  nui- 
sance: If  the  company,  maintaining  this 
nuisance  were  reiqulred  to  correct  It  they 

J;oTiId  do  so  In  a  few  months,  by  means 
which  are  aa  avaiiable  as  they  ever  wlU 
'  be.  Further  discussion  of  the  matter  as 
a  great  unsolved  and  insoluble  problem 
is  useless.  , 

Meanwhile  we  enter  our  emphatic  pro- 
test against  even  a'  resp^fectful  consider- 
ation of  the  only  plan  whick  the  Cen- 
tral management  seems  desirous  of  cotq- 
mendlng  to  public  favor — that  of  unroof- 
ing the  tunnel  to  permit  the  continued 
running,  of  steam  locomotives  down  to 
the  Forty-second  Street  Station.  This  is 
not  to  be  thought  of  fdr  a  moment.  NeW 
Tork  cannot  afford  to  make  such  a  sac- 
rifice for  the  benefit  of  the  railroad. 
Every  engine  running  through  tliia  ^t 
'■-  would  belch  forth  into  the  atmosanere 
.  it«  copious  outpourings  of  npxio)^  and 
deadly  gases,  to  t>e  carried  by  Vaii  winds 
'into  the  window^  of  the  residences  and 
other  buildings  lining  tlie  route.  During 
exceptional  Wintei;  storms  the  cut  would 

*  fill  with  snow,  aiid  to  clear  it  and  keep 
it  open  would  beV  work  of  great  diffi- 
tulty.  The  rattle  and  roar  of  the  traf- 
fic would  drive  population  away  from 

'  the  line  of  the  cut,  and  adjacent  prop- 
.'  erty  would  be  depreciated  to  such  an 
extent  that  the  conditions  existing  on 
the' east  side  of  ^e  switch' yard  jeould 
,  be  continued  a  couple  of  miles  furtne^ 
north.  The  reduction  o^  tax&ble  valua- 
tions, in  the  property  thus  Injured  would 
be  a  serious  matter  for  New  Tork. 

The  Grand  JuiT  has  a  clear  duty  in 
the  premises  and  will  perform  It  very 
badly  If  It  temporizes  wltfi  tlie  tunnel 
nuisance.  As  has  been  •hO'Wn  in  these 

■.         ',  •        :'  '/'', 
/  • 


columns,  it  is  a  'tamediable  nuisance, 
presenting  no  conditions  which  ,«cinnot  be 
met  by  means  wliich-  are  to  be  had  al- 
most "  ready  made  "  in  the  open  market. 
The  Central  management  'will  probably 
be  no  more  ready  five  years  hence  Jhan 
now  to  take  the  initiative  in  tlie  matter 
abolishing  the  B'oisance  which  has 
bee&  tolerated  to  the  elastic  limit  of  the 
public  patience. 


FINAITCE  AND  SOUTH  AJPRICA. 

The  extended  Parliamentary  reports 
of  the  liondctn  papers  are  at  the  same 
time,  to  intelligent  and  patriotic  Ameri- 
cans, sources  of  pleasure  and  of  dis- 
pleasure, since  "  pain "  Is  perhaps  too 
severe  a  word  to  wpply  theT  antithesis. 
It  is  really  a  keen  intellectual  ideasure 
to  read  the  debates  in  which  the  leading 
men  ai  the  House  of  Commofis,  and  even 
sometimes  two  or  three  members  of  the 
House  of  Lords  take  part,  and  which  the 
American  reader  takes  up,  primarily, 
only  for  the  sake  of  informing  himself 
about  British  politics.  But  then  he  dis- 
covers that  they  are  very  well  worth 
reading  for  their  own  sakes.  "We  suppose 
that  The  London  Times  prints  about  ten 
times  as  many  of  the  words  actually 
spoken  in  Parliament  as  .The  Associated 
Press  "  gives  out "  and  The  New  Tork 
Times  -prints  of  the'  words  actually 
spoken  In  Congress.  And  one  discovers 
that  It  Is  ."  good  newspaper,"  alike  for  a 
London  newspaper  to  print  these  very 
full  reports,  and  for  a  New  Tork  news- 
paper to  print  these  verj?  abridged  re- 
ports. This  scans  to  indicate  that  the 
lea.ding  debaters  in  Parliament  know 
their  business  about  ten  times  as  well  as 
the  leading  debaters  in  Congress^^  and 
thai,  what  they  say  Is  of  .about  'ten  times 
as  much  national  Interest.  But  we  can- 
not help  that. 

These  remarks  are  suggested  by  the  re- 
port In  The  London  Times  of  the  debate 
In  the  House  of  Commons  of  "Wednes- 
day, July  17,  on  the  budget  and  the 
South  African  war.  The  protagonists 
were  .  Sir  "William  Harcouht  and  Mr. 
Chamberlain.  That  -veteran  Parliament- 
ary pugil^  who  Is  evlderitly  not  the 
leader  of  the  Liberals,  t^t  evidently  the 
most  skillful  and  tenacious  fighter  they 
can  boast,  was  precisely  in  his  element. 
He  wEks  not  able  to  show,  what  he  began 
by  attempting  to  show,  that  the  cost  of 
the  great  Napoleonic  wars  was  borne  in 
a  much  larger  proportion  than  that  of 
the  "  great,."  South  African  war  against 
two  little  republics  6f  farmers,  ^)y  the 
generation  which  incurred  It.  Mr.  Cham- 
berlain "  had  him  there  "  and  countered 
on  him  with  great  effect.  But  he  .was 
able  to  show  that  the  Government's  esti- 
mates, founded  largely  upon  the  report 
upon  South  African  finances  of  Sir  Da- 
'viD  Barbour,  omitted  several  very  im- 
portant items  and  unduly  minimized 
many  others,  that  the  expenses  of  what 
Is  called  "  pacification  "  had  been  great- 
ly underestimated,  and  he  came  near  to 
showing  that  South  Africa,  when  It  Is 
won,  cannot  possibly  be  worth  anything 
like  what  it  has  cost.  He  was  particu- 
larly happy  and  destructive  upon  Mr. 
Chamberlain's  scheme  of  promoting 
British  emigration  to  overcome  the  sur 
^perlor  f^undlty  of  the  Boers,  and  upon 
the  cost  of  that  performance. 

In  reply  Mr.  Chamberlain  had  in  ef- 
fect to  admit  that  the  Government  had 
hugely  miscalculated  and  underestimated 
the  difficulty  and  cost  of  the  war,  and  to 
plead  that  the  opposition  had\)een  as 
much  in  the  dark  as  themselvefs.  iThat  is 
true.  But  Mr.  Chamberlain  omits  to 
mention  that  when  he  began  the  bellying 
policy  which  made  peace  impossible, 
there  were  Knglishmen  who  agreed  with 
him  that  it  would  be  absurdly  easy  for 
Great  Britaip  to  crush  the  Transvaal, 
who  nevertheless  insisted,  not-  upon  po- 
litical ETTOunds,  but  upon  grounds  of  jus- 
tice and  humanity,  that  to  "  crowd  "  a 
little  people  as  you  would  not  think  of 
crowding  a  great~beople  was  a  disgrace 
lo  the' British  naifie  and  a  thlnj;  intolera- 
ble. To  that  proposition  he  has  neirer, 
that  we  know  of, .  returhed  a  plausible 
answer.  But,  quite  apart  from  that,  we 
repeat  that  such  a  debate  as  this  Is  far 
move  interesting  and  illuminating  than 
Washington  upon  subjects  of 
atlonal  importance,  and  thdt 
the  difference  is  worth  our  considerate 
attention,  especially  that  of  members  of 
Congress,  "  at  which  "we  dedicate  him 
particularly." 


EXPEDIENT^  'm    SUFFRAGE  RE- 
STRICTION. 

-  The  people  of  Alabama  and  'Virginia 
are  not  finding  the  satisfactory  solution 
of  the  problem  of  an  arbitrarily  restrict- 
ed franchise  as  easy  as  they  had  antici- 
pated. Constitutional  jimendment  by  the 
insertion  of  what  is  popularly  known'^as 
a  "grandfather  clause"  hieis  griven  rise 
'to  an  unexpected  discussion  in  which  the 
critics  Of  the  diethod  seem  to  have  the 
best  of  the  argument.  It  is  beginning  to 
dawii  Upon'th&la-vmakers  that  the  only 
VKS  in  which  the  blacks  can  be  discrimi- 
nated against  on  purely'  racial  Ilaes  be- 
comes^ difficult  of  application  when  the 
positloh  of  persops  of  mixed  blooli 
classed  as  negroes.  Is  considered.  In 
many,  (and  indeed  in  most,  cases  they 
are  the  deiscendant?  Of  persons  who 
served  IH  one  "or  ot^er  of  the  wars,  Colo- 
nial, Federal,  or  Confederate,  and  are 
consequently  entitled  40  vote  uikder  the 
"  grandfather  clause."  The  contention 
may  be  set  up  that  the  mulatto  is  not  the 
lawful  descendant  of  the  white  soldier  or 
sailor  whose  son  or  grandsoq  he  un- 
doubtedly Js,  but  that  every  representa- 
tive of  this  class  is  nulIiUB  flllus  secTfi- 
Utis  populi.  It  is  Just  possible,  however, 
tliat  this  contention  might  be  raised  un- 
der conditio^  which  would  make.it  im- 
possible to  sustaia  it. 

The  Hon.  J.  J.  Willbtt  of  ,  Anniston 
has  cleverly  called  attention  to  the  great- 
er propriety  of  wliat  he  designates  as  a 
grandmother  clause "  for  the  attain^

«  DEAD  WEIGHT." 
'  It  contributes  not  ajJIttle  to  the  gayety 
of  nations  that  the  g^tlemen  in  respon- 
sible charge  of  the  East  River  Brli^e  do 
not  know  what  not  to  say  or  when  to 
say  nothing.  Commissioner  Shea,  in  his 
laudable  desire  to  correct  the  erroneous 
impression  wiiicll  the  statelment  of  some 
mlslnforme&^ngineer  has  created,  that 
the  brid([e  lly  carrying  .dead  weight, 
makes  haste  to  say:  "As  to  the  state- 
ment that  the  bridge'  Is  carrying  a:  lot 
of  dead  weight  in  the  shape -of  wires  and 
pipes  and  rails,  I  want  to  say  that  this, 
is  not  so.  We  are  carrying  a  pneumatic 
tube  and  wires,  but  all  of  these  are  in 
constant  use  and  are  not  dead  weight." 

Certainly  not.  The  man  who  calls  a 
live  wire  "  dead  weight  "  speaiis -without 
knowledge,  and  desierves  to  be  answered 
according  to  his  folly.  The  same  Is  true 
of  a  pneumatic  tube  in  use  for  tlie  trans- 
mission of.  mails,  and  rails  over  which 
cars  are  continually  running.  All  this  is 
the  llvest  kind 'of  live  weight,  and  the 
amount  of  it  does  not  count.  We  should 
miss  Commissioner  Shea  if  for  any  rea- 
son he  should  pass  Into  the  penumbra  of 
official  eclipse.  In  his  present  position  he 
Is  a  source  of  great  joy  to  the  unofficial

gestion food  for  thought  for  the  m(ffal-

a  comment  as  we  have  seen  was  made  at 
the  recent  Hampton  conference  by  W.  M. 
Reid  of  Portsmouth^  who  said:  "After 
all,'  the  purity  of  popular  elections  de- 
pends upon  the  moral  character  rather 
thkn  upon  the  wealth  or  intelligence  of 
the  voter.  The  argument  for  a  distinctly 
racial  disfranchisement  seems  to  be 
based  upon  the  idea  that  'with  the  negro 
put  of  politics  the  elections  will  be  pure; 
that  the  white  men  of  the  South,  regard- 
less of  the  degree  of  intelligence  or 
wealth  whlbh  they  may  or  may  not  pos- 
sess, are  not  capable  of  corrupt  election 
practices— a  claim  not  set  up  in  any 
other  part  of  the  world."  ,  .

of  the  work  Eihe  hires  that  servant  to  do, 
or  that  it  shall  go  iipdone..  But  thpre  is 
a  serious  aspecif  of  the  matter  which  is 
also  worth  attention. 

It  is  the  capacity  a^d  disposition  of 
the  individual  employer  and  the  individ- 
ual servant  tliat  do  and  must  really  reg- 
ulate their  relations.  Some  housekeep- 
ers have  "  the  knack  "  of  keeping  the^r 
servants,  while  othen^  spend  their  time 
watching  t'he  exits  and  entrances  of 

'birds  of  prey  and'  passage."  Some 
housekeepers  make  their  servants  be- 
Ueve  that  thfey  are  tfielr  servants'  .best 
friends  and  most  trustworthy  counselors, 
while  others  are  very  cordially  hated  by 
the  domestics  in  their  employ.  This 
state  of  things  will  continue,  whether 

'  unions  "  are  formed  or  not.  But  if  Is 
quite  inconceivable  tliat  housekeepers 


^   By  ordering  all  persons  In  the  naval 

service  to  refrain  hereafter  from  making 
"  p\iblic  statements  concerning  the  subject 
matter  of  the  Court  of  Inquiry  requested 
by  Rear  Admiral  Schley  "  Secretary 
Long  gives  decidedly  belated  recognition  of 
the' fact  that  many  .such  persons  have  been 
talking  -with  great  volubiU'ty  for  months 
past  ana  in  a  way  that  to  the  civilian 
mind  seemed  to  be  in  direct  and  flagrant 
violation  of  naval  regulations.  And  this 
talk,  so  far  as  we  remember,  has  conre 
entirely,  or  almost  so,  from  the  pro- 
fessional opponents  ot  Admiral  Schlet.. 
He  and  his  friends  In  the  service  have 


hialntalned  soinething  close  to  unbroken 
will  consent  to  complata  of  their  domes- ^  silence,  despite  the  gravity  of  the  charges 

made,  sometimes  in  explicit  terms  and 
sometimes  by  innuendo,  so  th'at  the  present 
order  is  little  more  than  an  announcement 
that,  one  side  having  presented  Its  case 
In  all  fullness  and  freedom,  the  toleration 
of  the  department  is  at  an  end  and  the 
othei'  side  must  not  reply  except  hefore  the 
official  inquisitors,  where  some  regard  for 
the  rules  of  evidence  and  the  ordinary 
proprieties  will  be  observed.  If  there  Is 
authority  to  tepninate  the  expression  of 
opinion  that,  has  been  going  on  so  long, 
there  was  author},ty  to  prevent  it,  or  at  any 
rate  the  power  lo  bring  it  to  a  sudden, 
termination  very  soon  after  it  began.  Of 
course,  the  fact  that  the  Court  of  Inquiry 
has  been  organized  does  make  some  dif- 
ference, as  the  "  subject  matter  "  to  which 
the  Secretary  refers  is  now  sub  judlce,,but 
still  the  situation  is  just  a  bit  queer,  as 
\was  Secretary  Long's  use  of  the  word 
"  disobedience  "  in  his  instructions  to  the 
judges  whom  he  had  summoned.  It  seems 
as  though  dlsobedence  ought  to  be  a  con- 
clusion, not  a  premise,  of  an  Investigation 
of  an  officer's  conduct.  . 


PORTO  RICO  AS  A  TRUCK  FARM. 

It  is  evident  that  the  Porto  Ricans  are 
intent  upon  making  the  best  of-^he  very 
good  though  perfectly  fair  bargain  they 
have  made  in  securing  free  trade  with 
the  United  States,  and  thus  opening  to 
th^m  a  market  which  will  absorb  alf 
their  products,  with.out  feeling  the  differ- 
ence, so  to  speak.  • 

Under  Spanish  rule  the  leading  crop  of 
the  island  was  coffee,  and  doubtless  the 
Porto  RIcan  coffee  Is  'very  good,  aiid 
needs  only  to  be  better  Icnown  to  com- 
mand a  high  price  in  our  market.  But  It 
is  unlikely  that  It  -will  hE^ve  the  same 
comparative  Importance  hereafter  In  the 
•exports  of  the  Island.*  And  this  for  the 
reason  that  coffee  Is  on  our  free  list,  anc 
that  the  Porto  RIcan  planters  have  there- 
fore no  ^rif  f  advantage  over  their  Bra- 
zilian competitors.  Of  the  whole  area  of 
Porto^Ico  under  cultivation,  41' per  cent., 
or  180,289  acres,  was  last  year  planted  in 
coffee.  It  seems  that  this  area  will  be 
very  much  reduced. 

On  the  other  J^and,  the  Island  now  gets 
the  benefit  of  the  sugar^  tariff,  as  no 
other  land  Outside  our  o-wn  limits  g'ets  it, 
excepting  Hawaii.  The  dif f erente  Is  quite 
gr^at  enough  to  Insitoe  that  all  the  avail- 
able land,  for  sugar  plantations  will  be 
devoted  to  that  ^bp.  Possibly  the  80,0.34 
,  acres  devote^^  sugar  last  year  comprise 
all  of  such  land  that  there  is.  But  lA  any 
case,  sugar  growing  Is -a  more  promising 
operation  in  Porto  Rlrio  now  than  it  has 
^een  since  the  stimulation  of  beet  sugar 
growing  by  bounties.  Poor  Jamaica  will 
look  -with  more  en-vy  than  ever  on  the 
state  of  her  neighbor,  and  the  feeling  In 
favor  of  annexation  cannot  but  be  much 
strengthened. 

It  win  be  strengthened  by  another  ad- 
vantage that  the  procftimatlon  has  given 
Porto  Rico.  Itt  frults'xand  early  vegeta- 
bles, such  as  Jamaica  raises,  such  as 
Bermuda  raises,  .Porto  Rico  now  has  the  , 
same  advantage  that  she  has  in  sugar. 
Sinca  the  disastrous  frost,  Florida  can  no 
longer  compete,  at  least  for  several  years, 
in  oranges,  of  which  Califor&ia  now  has 
the  monopcdy  in  our  market.  "Whatever 
the  orange  crop  of  Porto  Rico  may  be;  it 
is  all  assured  of  a  ready  sale.  And  the 
total  product  of  the  island  is  so  small 
that  the  price  here  of  West  Indian  prod- 
ucts, will  lie  fixed  by  her  competitors, 
which  are  discriminated  against'  in  het;, 
favor,  which  is  to  e^y  that>  the  Porte 
Rican  grower  will  get  more  money  for 
his  crop,  by  the  amount  of  jthe  0uty,  .  than 
his  competitors  outside  our  "  ring  fence  '' 
can  get.  It  is  an  en-viable  position,  anc! 
we  may  be  assured  that  it  will  soon  be  a 
much  envied  position.-  All  the  "West  In-, 
dies,  Cuba  included,  will  be  clamoring  tc 
be  let  inside  the  fence,  b)it  pij  course  there 
■  is  only  one  way  In  -which,  sb  long  as  we 
maintain  a  protective  tariff,  that  can  b^: 
managed,  and^that  la  tlie  way  of  anitq^-^ 


tics  only  "  to  the  Secretary,''  and  will 
not  insist  upon  their  right  to.  do  their 
own  rebukes  of  tfie  servants  to  their 
servants'  faces.  In  fact,  this  one  clause 
would  quite  justify  the  hous'eiceepers  of 
Chicago  In  refusing  'to  take  any  domes- 
tics who  belonged  to  a  union  which  made 
so  preposterous  a  d^and. 

Apart  from  "  privileges,"  and  as  td 
wages,  there  is  absolutely  no  grievance 
on , the  part  of  domestic  servants.  Quite 
the  contrary.  It  is  a  proof  of  the  busi- 
ness Incapacity  or  negligence  of  the 
party  of  the  other  part  that  they  are 
n!ow  getting  some  four  times  as  much  as 
they  got  a  generation  ago,  and  far  more, 
comparatively,  than  any  'other  work- 
women. For  the  ".general  housework- 
er,"  by  the  force  of  the  term",  is  ah  igno- 
rant, inexi^erlencedi  and  unskilled  per- 
son -if  ho  knews  nothing  about-  her  work 
but  what  her  mIstfSS'ses  have  taught  her. 
Yet  she  gets  in  money  about  the  same 
wages  Vadx  are  given  to  shopgirls,  who 
are  her  "superiors  in  education,  who  must 
have  more  intelligence  than  she  needs, 
and  who  are  under  expenses,  for  dress 
and  for  tran^ortation,  froni  which  she  is 
free.  And  yet  the  shopgirl's  wages  com- 
prise her  whole*  income,  while  the  gen- 
eral houseworker  is  "  all  found  "  In  ad- 
dition, provided  with  board  and  lodging, 
generally  -with  medical  attendance,  and 
is  under  no  expenses  whatever  except 
the  minimum  for  dress.  The  comparison 
shows  that  the  domestic  Is  .outrageously 
overpaid,  and  doubtless  the  books  of 
savings  banks  would  show  the  enormous 
advantage  which  she  enjoys  in  having 
her  wages  fixed  not  by  supply  and  de- 
mand, but.  by  the  negligence  dr  incompe- 
ten^  of  her  employers.  '\ 

■  jJCBflCS   OF  THE  TIMES. 

— ^-One  of  our^  correspondents  the  other 
day  Introduced  a  savage  criticism  of  what 
the  British  are  doing  In  South  Africa— and 
Incidentally  of  The  New  York  Times  for 
not  condemning  those,  acts  wlth^  the  se- 
verity he  thought  they  deserved 
ring  to  the  deportatkicr  of  Ih'lf^  French 
farmers  from  Acadlayn  1755^  His  conten- 
tion was  that  the  ptrflcy  now  In  course  of 
executlsn  is  a  continuation  or  duplication 
of  the  one  then  followed,  and  merited  equal 
denunciation  fi-om.  all  who  love  liberty  and 
resent  the  oppression  of  the  weak  by  the 
strong.  Now,  those  who  try -to  prove  thlng» 
from  the  events  of  the  past  ought  to  pre- 
pare themselves  for  their  task  lur  studying 
historic' facts  instead  of  poetic  fictions.  If 
the  British  have  as  good  excuse  toi  what 
they  are  doing  In  South  Africa  as  they  Bad 
for  what  they  did  In  Nova  Scotia,*  their 
case  is  an  extremely  good  One,  and  t^lr  de- 
fense perfect.  Nobody  who  has '  informed 
himself  as  to  the  cause  and  the  manner  of 
the  expulsion  of  the  Ac'dSians  can  have  the 
faintest  doubt  that  the  former  -waS  ade- 
quate and  the  latter  as  gentle  as  the  cir- 
cumstances permitted.  The  English  were 
neither  cruel  nor  rapacious.  Nova  Scotia 
was  British  terrltorj',  and  It  had  been  rec- 
ognized as  «uch  In  the  most  formal  manner 
by  the  French  Government  many  years 
before.  For  nearly  half  a  century  the 
Acadians  had  been  treated  with  a  mar- 
velous and  wholly  undeserved  leniency  by 
the  masters  to  whom  their  King  had  trans- 
ferred them.  Though  their  property  rights' 
had  been  scr,upulousiy  respected,  and 
though  they  had  been  allowed  the  free  ex- 
ercise of  their  religio^,  they  remained  to- 
the  end  the  determined  and  ruthless  foes 
of  English  -fule  and  obstinately  refused  to 
take   the   ordinary   oath   of  -  alleglanoe, 

.though  'repeatedly  warned  In  most  ex- 
plicit terms  what  the  necessary  conse- 
quences' of  further  contumacy  would  be. 
The  expulsion  was  determined  upon  with 
the  utmost  reluctance  and  after  numberless 
appeals  to  the  common  sen'se  of  the  Aca- 
dians. Their  hostility  was  unconquerable, 
however,' and  their  continued  presence  was 
unendurable.   Their  lot  was  "certainly  hard 

.when  the  da'y  of  reckoning  came,  but  no 
unavoidable  terrors  were  added  to  It,  and 
their  sorrows  were  self -chosen.  Our  cor^ 
respondent  must  se^k  a  hew  basis  for  his 
criticisms  both  of  Great  Britain  and  of 
ourselves.

 Well-deserved_  attention  Is  called  by 

our  neighbor  The' World  to  the  fact  that 
the  Brooklyn  Brt'ge  1?  carrying  ^n  enor- 
mous amount .  of  dead  weight  which  its 
builders  did  not  have  in  mind  when  they 
pla'hh^d  the  structure,  and  -which,  while 
very  appreciably  decreasing  the  effective 
sifetainlng  power  of  the,  bridge,  either  serve 
no  purpose  -ndiatever  or  accomplish  ends 
unrelate9  to  the  conveyancfe  of  the  resi- 
dents of  the  two  cities  from  one  of' them 
to  the  other.  Included  among  the  weigjits 
that  could  be  removed  without  affecting 
the  efficiency  of  the  bridge  as  a  bridge 
are  mentioned:  Two  large  pneumatic  .tubes 
through  which  mail  matter  was  formerly, 
transmitted,  but  for  some  time  unused; 
two  sets  of  unnecessary  rails  on  the  third- 
rail  road-way;  eight  cables  for  which  there 
Is  little  use  and  for  which  there  would  be 
none  If  the  number  of  electric  cars  were 
adequate,-  and,  lastly,  a  maze  ot  telegraph 
and  telephone  wires,  all  of  Vhlch  could  be 
run  under  the  river.  The.  combined  weight 
of  all  these  things  is  estimated  at  477  tons; 
or  almost  tiait  of  what  the  bridge  was  de- 
signed to  carry,  and  if'  they  were  removed 
the  present  traffic  would  infringe  much 
less  than  it  does  upon  the  margin  of  safety 
originally  provided.  ThiS  matter  is  evi- 
dently worth  immediate  consideration.  Pos- 
sibly the  city  is-  receiving  something  In  the 
way  of  rent  for  a  few  of  the  ^rtres  strung 
on  thef'bridge  but  it  can  well  afford  to  lose 
the  money  thus  earned,  and  even  it  there 
were  no  suspicion  that,  the  bridge  has  been 
overloaded,  It  would  be  the  part  of  wisdom 
to  keep  it  free  from  burdens  not  essential 
to  Its  utilization  for  its  first  and-  incompar- 
ably: most  important  purpose.

a  very  cursory-  inspection.'  » 

The  Harlem  Mire  should.  In -my  opinion, 
be  filled  in,  and  the  others  drawij  off, 
thoroughly  cleansed,  bottoms  cemented

THE  NATIONAUSTf  PROTEST 


blll9n  and  Others  Accuse  the  Field 
iVIarshal  0  Cruelty,  and  Assert 
tha^e  Was  a  Failure.. 

LONDON,  Aug.  1.— In  the  House  of  Com- 
mons yesterday  the  Right  Hon.  A.  J.  B|l- 
four,  the  Government  leader,  proposed  a 
resolution  granting  to  Field  Marshal  Earl 
Roberts  flOQJJOO  for  his  services  In  South 
Africa,  )n  accordance  -with  the  recommen- 
dation of  King  Edward,  announced  in  the 
House  of  Lor(|s  by  Lord  Salisbury  on  Mon- 
day. '  _  ., 

Mr.  Balfour,  In  the  course  of  a  eulogy  of 
the  Field  Marshal,  -vfhom  he  compared  with 
such  men  a^  ColUngwood,  Nelson,  Marl- 
borough, and  Wellington,  said  there  was 
no  doubt  that  but  for  Lorff  Roberts's  daring 
and  strategy,  and  the  rapidity  with  which 
his  plans  were  carried  out,  Klmberley  and 
Mafeklhg  'would  have  fallen,  11,000- BriUsh 
would,  have  been  starved  Into  submission 
at  Ladysmlth,  and  there  would  have  been 
a '  general  rising  of  disloyalists  in  South 
Africa.  Great  Britain  might  have  recov-j 
ered  therefrom,  but  at  what  a  cost?  The 
country  was  saved  from  this  by  the  genius 
of  the  .  man  whom  he  now  inviteif  the 
Houje  to  reward  by  a  unanimous  vote,  ir- 
respective of  pollttcal  differences. 

The  Liberal,  leader.  Sir  Henry  Campbell- 
Bannerman, .  concurred  in  the  motion,  but 
the  Irish  members  protested. 

John  Dillon  (Nationalist)  strongly  op- 
posed the  vote.  He  protested  against  the- 
niention  of  Lord  Roberts  in  association 
with  such  a  man  as  Marlborough.  He  as- 
serted that  Loi;d  Roberts  had  shown  the 
greatest  Inhumanity  ,in  South  Africa,  and 
said  he  had  employed  barbarous  methods 
and  had  proved  himself  ~a  dismal  failure. 

Henry  Labouchere  (Liberal)  protested 
against  the  granting  of  gratuities  to  mili- 
tary- men,  while  nothing  was  ^iven  to 
civilians  who ,  were  doing  something  for 
.the  benefit  of  their  country. 

James  Keir  Hardie  (Socialist  and  Inde- 
pendent Labor)  took  a  similar  View.  He 
said  that,  in  the,  opinion  o'f  experts  at 
home  and  abroad,"  Lord  Roberts's  failure 
was  primarily  responsible  for  the  continu- 
ance i)f  the  war.  _  - 

John  G.  Swift  MacNelll  (Nationalist)  said 
he  considered  that  Lord  Roberts's  opera- 
tions were  conducted  with  a  maximum  of 
cruelty  and  a  •minimum  of  humanity,  and 
that  his  farewell  speech  at  Cape  Town  was 
horrible  hypocrisy,  land  blasphemy. 

After  further  d^^e  for  and  against  the 
measure,  Mr.  Ba^lfeur  moved  the  closm*, 
which  was  carriedSiy  257  fo  108  votes'.  The 
resolution  was  afterward  adopted  by  a 
vote  of  281  to  73.     ;  ;

"  I  am  lnfor;ned  on  good  authority  that 
Mr.  Krtiger's  visit  to  the  United  States  has

THE  HAGUE,  July  31.— The  Interview 
yesterday  between  Robert  H.  'Van  Schaaqk, 
Treasurer  of  the  Holland  Society  of  Chi- 
cago, and  Mr.  Krilger  was  most  cordial. 
Mr.  and  Mrs.  'Van  Schaack  and  Mr.  Kriiger 
conversed  for  an  hour. 

When  Mr.  'Van  Schaack  announced  that 
he  was  the  bearer  of  th^  Holland  Society's 
invitation  to  Mr.  Kriiger  to  be  its  guest, 
assuring  Mr.  Kriiger .  of  the  high  esteem 
In  which  he  was  held  in  the  United  States 
as  a  grand  old  patriot,  whose  noble  devo- 
tion to  the  caifse  of  liberty  recalled  the  de- 
votion of  the  Prince  of  Orange,  Mr.  Kruger 
was  visibly  affected.  He  said  he  well  knew 
he  had  many  warm  friends  in  America,  and 
would  like  to  thank  them. 

Mr.  Kruger  presented  to  Mr.  Van  Sehaack 
his  photograph  and  autograph.  The  Boer 
statesman  seemed  to  be  feeble'  and  de- 
pressed with  grief.

"  On  the  arrival  here,  on  July  24  of  the

from  New  Orleans,  she  was  minutely

THE  ANTARCTIC  EXPEDITIONS. 

American   Aid   Asked   In  Connection 
with  the  German.  Undertaking— 
The  Discovery  Leaves  London. 

WASHiryjTON,  July  Sl.^The  United 
States  has  been  Invited  by  the  German  Gov- 
ernment to  co-operate  in  meteorological  and 
magnetic  observations  south  of  parallel  30, 
south  latitude,  in  connection  with  the  South 
Pole  expedition  which  Germany  Is  about  to 
.undertake.  - 

The  invftatipn  has  been  turned  over  to 
the  Navy  .  Department,  and  the.  Hydro- 
graphic  Office  of  that  department  will 
probably  arrange  to  co-operate  in  meteor- 
logical  observations.  The  office  has  vol- 
uiitary  observers  all  over  the  world,  who 
take  observations  each  day  at  noon,  Green- 
wich time,  and  the.  Hydrographic  Office 
will  supply  all  Infor^natlon  collected  in^this 
way.  ■ 

The  earth  and  atmosphere  south  of  30 
degrees  south  are  practically  new  fields  for 
scientific  observations,  although  the  United 
States  became  a  'pioneer  in  this  work  whan 
the  Wilkes  expedition  was  sent,  south  in 
1830.  . 

LONDON,  jujy  3i.-The  British  Antirctlc 
ship  Discovery  left  the  Thames  this  after- 
noon, bound  for  the  Solent. 

King  Edward,  who  is  keenly  Interested  in 
the  expedition,  will  Inspect  the  vessel  pri'or 
fo  her  final  departure  on  her  trip  of  three 
or  four  years'-  exploration  In  the  Antarctic 
Circle. 


The  Discovery,  which  was  launched  at 
Dundee  last  March,  is  believed  to  be  the 
best 'steamship  for  navigatlon,ln  the  polar 
regions  Tfever  built.  No  Iron  was  used  in 
her  construction,  because  magnetic  survey 
work  is  one  of  the  main  objects  of  the  ex- 
pedition. 

The  vessel  is  so  .constructed  that  if  ice 
closes  In  around  her  she  will  risq  and  clear 
herself  away.  If  the  rudder  and  propeller 
are  threatened  both  can  be  hauled  on  deck. 
One  of  the  most  remarkable  features  of 
the  ship  is  a  System  ot  air-Jocks .  between 
her  exterior  and  interior.  This  will  prevent 
cold  air  enterlngi  the  vessel  when  persons 
go  on  deck  or  below.  * 

Food  for  three  years  will  be  carried  on 
the  Dlscoverv.  -^fhlch  will  be  commanded 
by  Capt.  R.  F.  Scott.  ^»  N.  Prof.  Gregfory

per here,  says  he*n.  /er  knew  Galllotti.  This 
is  explained  by  th'  fact. that  Esteve  cama.  . 
here  to  take  up  t:  '  propaganda  at  about  . 
the  same  time  >that  3resci,  Quantlvallo,  and 
others  sailed   for    Europe.    It   is  believed 
that  Galllotti  was  _  member  of  this  band,  ' 
and  that  each  ma    in  it  Intended  to  kill 
some  monarch  or  !  gh  official.  Brescl  was 
the  only  one  who  h  s  so  far  succeeded. 

In  this;  connectic  the  letter  found  upon 
the  bodv  of -Giuf  ppe  Sparendi  after  ;he 
killed  himself  is  r-  called.  This  letter  told 
of  the  plot  tp  kill  i:  ing  Humbert,  and  spoke 
of  Sparendi  as  or  of  twenty-seven  men 
who  were  to  leave'  America  to  wreak  ven- 
geance upon  the  c:  >wned  heads  of  Europe.  / 
Litne  notice  was  t  ken  of -the  letter  at  th^ 
time,  but  recent  e  ent.s, 'especially  the  ar- 
rest ot  various  Pa  srson  Anarchists  in  Eu- 
rope, lead  to  the  relief  that  it  may  have 
described  a  plan  ^  lich  was  ca-rried  out. 

Chief  Graul.  who  e  course  in  allowing  the 
Anarchists  to  do  s  they  please  here  was. 
lauded  by  Esteve  ast  Monday,  was  inter- 
viewed to-aay  in  :  ?gard  to  the  news  from 
Switzerland.  He  aid  he  knew  nothing  , 
about  Galllotti— tl  it  the  newspaper  men  - 
knew  more  than    e  did- 

It  seems  probfibl  that  not  all  the  Anarch- 
ists who-left  Pate:  ^on  at  the  same  tune  as 
Brescl  are  now  ir  Europe.  Some  of  them 
are  said  to  be  In  :  uenos  Ayres,  and  are  so

SCEEI  COURT  OF  INfiUfflY 

Rear  Admiral  KimberlyANot  Yet 
Excused  from  Serving. 


Ii»Qf  Department  Announces  the  Re^ 
eeipt  of  Schley's  Letter  Acknowl- 
edging the  Precept. 


Special  to  The  New  York'  Times. 
.  'WASHINGTON,' July  M.— The  name  of 
Rear  Admiral  S.  B.  Luce,  retired,  has  been 
prominently  mentioned  for  a  place  on  the 
SchMy  court  ot  inquiry.  In  place  ^T~Bear 
Admiral  Kimberly,  who  has  asked  to  be  re- 
HeveJ.  There  is  considerable  reason  to  be- 
llve  that  Secr(;tary  Long:  has  »his  name  bin- 
der cmsideration.  Nevertheless,  if  Adtjilral 
Luce  is  appointed  it  is  likely  that  Rear  Ad- 
miral Schley's  friends  will  urge  hiih  to  fnake 
use  of  his  privilege  of  objecting  foTnembers 
of  th(-  court.  Rear  Admiral  Luce  Is  said  to 
be  a  strong  partisan  of  Rear  Admiral  Samp- 
son, and  it  is  reported  that  at  a  recent  din- 
ner he  made  a  strong  speech  on  the  subject. 

Rear  Admiral  Luce  is  conntcted  by  mar- 
riage vith  Senator  Lodge  of  Massachus- 
etts, is  considered  desirable  by  advo- 
cates oV  a  strictly  impartial  court  that  no 
one  wh.i  is  in  any^way  connected  witli 
prominent'  offiteholders  should  be  chosen, 
provided  the  6tfireh6lders  are  men^  who, 
by  their  official  position,  are  Interested  in 
the  Schlev  case. 

If  Adn*-ai  Luce  Is  not  appointed  it  is 
quite  prcfable  that  Rear  Admiral  Ramsay, 
retired,  wHl  be.  That  oflicer  has  never  ex- 
pressed an  opinion  one  way  or  the  other, 
•  and  nobody  knows  ■what  his  sentiments  are. 
He  has  the  reputation,  however,  of  being 
thoroughly  fair  and  open-minded.  Rear  Ad- 
miral Joseiih  N.  Miller,  retired,  has  also 
been  mentioned. 

It  was  said  at  the  Navy  I>epartment  to- 
day that  the  letter  from  Rear  Admiral 
Schley  acknowledging  the  receipt  of  the  pre- 
cept to  the  court  of  inquiry  and  making  cer- 
tain suggestions  with  reference  thereto,  had 
at  last  been  received;  No  explanation  of  the 
delay  in  its  arrival  and  no  statement  of  Us 
contents  were  furnished.  Juclgfe  Advocate 
Lemiy  merely  announced  tliat  the  letter 
had  arrived  and  would  receive  con.sidera- 
tion.  He  declined  to  answer  all  Interroga- 
tories, basing  his  refusal  upon  the  order  of 
the  Secretary  prohibiting  officers  from  dis- 
cussing the  case. 

Capt.  Lemly  departs  on  his  annual  leave 
Saturday,  and  the  supposition  is  that  Rear 
Admiral  Schley's  letter  wlH  be  considered 
before  that  time,  and  whatever  action  is 
to  be  taken  on  the  Admiral's  representa- 
tions will  be  taken  at  once.  The  letter  to 
the  department;  together  with  the  reply 
thereto,  ji5%oon  as  the  imier  is  prepared, 
■Rill  be  made  public. 

"Capt.  James  Parker,  the  ex-naval  officer 
■who  is  acting  as  Rear  Admiral  Schley'-s 
assistant  counsel,  to-day  continued  his  ex- 
amination of  the  logs  of  t  lie  ships  engaged 
In  the  Santiago  camiialgn  an<i  other  offi- 
cial records  pertaining  tSierefb.  He  occu- 
pled  Secretary's  Long's  oTfice  adjoining  tl  e 
Bureau  of  Navigatlort,  asid  by  direction  of 
Admiral  Crowninshleld.  vhlef  of.  that  bu- 
reau, who  is  now  ActlhK  Secretary  of  the 
Navy,  newspaper  men  and  others  wer6  not 
permitted  to  communicate  with  him.  One 
of  the  officers  of-  the  bureau  remained  con- 
■tantly  In  the  room  to  see  that  the  official 
records  were  not  tampered  with. 

_  HINGHAM,  Mass  July  31.— John  T>. 
Long,  Secretary  of  tne  Navy,  arrived  here 
late  last  night."  and  wtll  remain  here  until 
he  makes  his  annual  visit  to  Bucks^ort, 
.  Me.  In  an  interview  to-day,  the  Secretary 
said  that  he  did  not  know  whether  Admiral 
Kimberly  w^ould  be  excused  from  service  on 
the  court  of  inquiry  appointed  to  hear  the 
BampsQp-Schley  matter. 

"  I  had  hoped,"  he  continued,  "  that  the 
Admiral  would  be  able  to  serve,  for  he 
•would  be  a  valuaUe  man.  However,  there 
are  other  available  meii  on  the  retired  list 
from,  whom,  If  Admiral  Kimberly  is  -ex^ 
cu.ied  because  of  the  state  of  his  health,  a 
good  selection  will  doubtless  be  made  to 
supply  the  vacancy  on  the  board.  If  there 
is  a  vacancy  the  court,^  filling  It  Is  a 
mere  matter  of  detail,  anyway.  'The  coun-' 
try  .seemed  well  satisfied  with  the  per- 
sonnel of  the  court  as  it  was  announced.  I 
nady  hoped  that  no  change  would  be  neces-

"  HINGHAM,  Mass.,  July,  WTien  asked 
to-day  regarding  the  pubUshSd  dispatches 
from  ■Washington  ,  to  thfe' effect  that  he 
expected  to  retir*  from  office  and  that  he. 
would  be  succeeded  by  Gov.  Allen,  Secre- 
tary Long  said  that  he  had  no  expectation 
of  retiring  before  the  close  of  President 
McKinley's.Admlnistratlon.  "I  hava  made 
no  plans."  Tie  added,  "  and  my  retirement 
is  something  that  might  come  any  time, 
but  I  do  not  h.ive  it  in  vie-w.  If  I  should 
..J'etlre  the  Navy  Department  would'be  open 
to  Mr.  AHen.  but  as  he  has  been  Governor 
of  .Porto  Riijo.  I  very  much  doubt  if  he 
■would  take  the  office." 

GEN.  WOOD  TALKS  OTCUBA. 

He  Says  Yeltow  Fever  Epidemics  on  the 
Islsnd  Will  Soon  End. 

Gen.  Leonard  'Wood,  Gcrvernor  General  of 
Cuba,  who  Is  on  board  the  dispatch  boat 
Kanawha,  off  Quarantine,  said  yesterday 
that  he  was  rapldl/regahilng  his  healthi 
Sirs.  Wood  will  be  released  from  Quarantine, 
atjout  noon  to-day,  when ^he  will  embark 
on  the  Kanawia  to  accompa.ny.  Gen.  Wood 
on  his  cruise  of  three  tweeks  along  the 
Hlstern  coast.  On  board  the  Kanawha. yes- 
terday Gen.  Wood  "was  so  much  improved 
that  he  consented  to  talk  to  'some  extent 
on  Cuba  and  the  future  prospects  of  the 
Island. 

"  Cuba,-"  said  ihe,  "  Is  ,a  totally  undevel- 
oped Islagd,  and  has  a  tgrfeat  future  before 
it.  -yelloi»  fever,  that  'great  bugbear  of  bur 
people 'In,  the  South,  in  agbther  year  will 
cease  to  be  epidemic.  We'have  not  had  a 
single  case  of  yellow  fever  at  Havana  this 
Summer,  and  none  in  Eastern  Cuba  for  two 
years  past"  , 

On  the  subject  of  Cub'aii  industries  and 
conditions  in  Cuba  generally.  Gen.  Wood 
said: 

"  Cuba.'s  resources  require  capital  for  de- 
velopment. The  last  enormous  sugar  crop 
was  -rstsed  on  8  per  cent,  of  the  entire  su- 
gar-producing lands.  Only  this  small  per- 
centage is  under  cultivation.  We  have 
$1..tOO.i)00  in  our  reserve  fuiid,  and  can  pay 
all  our  debts  and  get  out  of  Cuba  within 
the  nesxt  eight  months..  We  have  established 
8,60(1  flourishing  schools. 

"  Two  years  ago  we  were  obliged  to  pro- 
vide over  100  orphan  asylums  to  protect  the 
destitute  children:  since  then  we  have  abol- 
ishe.d  'W.  and  expect  to  be  able  to  close 
more  before  we  retire  from  the  management 
of  Cuban  affairs.  Our  troops  have  been  well 
cared  for,  and  their  hearth  compares  fa- 
vorably with  that  of  the  troops  in  this 
country,  showing  that  the  island  is  healthy. 

"  The  judiciary  is  entirely  reformed  and 
Is  sat-Lsfactory  to  the  people.  The  people 
are  gentle  and  elSisilx  governed.  They  are 
affectionate  arid  tractable.  Beggars,  are 
never  see-n.  The  products  of  nature  are  so 
liberal  that  the  ordinary  wants  of  men  are 
easily  supplied." 

Gen.  Wood  declijaed  to  express  any  opin- 
■  Ion  concerning  candidates  for  the  Presi- 
dency or  the  probable  result  of  the  selec- 
tion of  the  Senators.

RARE  JEWISH  CEREMOWY. 

Man  Relieved  of  Obligation  to  Marry 
His 'Deceased  Brother's  Wife. 

An  extraordinarily  rare  ceremony,  based 
by  the  Jews  directly  upon  the  teachings  of 
the  Old  Testament,  w^as  performed  yester- 
day in  this  city  when  a  young  woman  who 
had  traveled  10,000  miles  was  released!  from 
the  obligation  of  marrying  her  deceased 
husband's  brother.  The  obligation  of  a  wo- 
man marrying  the  brother  of  her  deceased 
husband,  according  to  ancient  law,  arose 
when  her  husband  died  before  children 
were  born  tq  the  pair.^ 

The  marriagff'Was  known  as  a  "  levirate 
marriage."  Histlngs;e  Bible  Dictionary 
says  that  the  purpose(of  a  marriage  of  this 
character  is  that  the  deceased  husband's 
brother  may  "  raise  up  children  to  the  dead 
man,  to  whom  the  children  produced  by 
such  a  marriage  were  then  supposed  to 
belong." 

The  young  woman  in  the  case  is  Mrs. 
Golda  Lacs;  a  young  Roumanian  Jewess 
from  Bucharest.  A  little  over  three  years 
ago.^she  married  Emanuel  Lacs,  when  she 
was  but  eighteen  years  old.  Within  three 
months  the  husband  died.  All  this  hap- 
pened in  Bucharest. 

The  brother-in-law,  whom,  'accofdtfg  to 
the  faith,  the  young  woman  must  marry, 
is  Samuel  Lacs  of  316  East  Fortjf-ninlh 
Street,  this  city.  Lacs  was  already  mar- 
ried, and,  therefore,  of  course,  could  not 
have  married  the  widow  of  his  brother, 
even  if  he  had  wanted  to.  The  young  wo- 
man opened  negotiation  with  her  New  York 
relative  soon  after  the  death  of  her  hus- 
band, but  her  brother-in-law  found  it  Ira- 
possible  to  travel  abroad  to  have  the  cere- 
mony of  dispensing  with  the  obligation  to 
marry  performed.-,  Witi)'out  this  dispensa- 
tion, according  to  the  law,  the  widow  could 
not,  marry  again. 

,  As  nothing  remained  under  the  clrcum- 
s.tances,  the  widow  decided  to  come  to 
America  to  get  the  desired  release,  and  it 
was  this  ceremony  which  was  performed 
yesterday  in  a  little  front  room  on  the 
second  floor  of  a  tenement  house  at'  100 
Norfolk  Street. 

In  preparation  for  the  ceremony  all  chairs 
were  removed  from  the  room,  and  two 
ur.planed  boards  were  brought '  in  and 
placed  on  supports  forming  a  'V-shaped 
bench.  On  this  bench  sat  the  Senate,  Rabbi- 
B  Moott  accompanied  by  four  assistants. 
1  en  witn*ses  and  the  parties  most  inter- 
ested entered  the  room  and  took  their 
places  standing. 

Then  the  brother-in-law  entered  the  room. 
He  took  his  place  resting  against  a  board 
that  had  been  leaned  for  the  purpose 
slanting  against  the  Wall.  Next  the  widow 
entered.  She  is'  a,  comely  young  woman, 
dres.^ed  simply  for  the  ocoasion,  without 
ornaments  or  jewels,  and  wore  a  long  black 
veil  thrown  oyer  her  head  and  shoulders. 

The  ceremony  began  by  introducing  wit- 
nesses that  the  woman  principal  of  the 
ceremony  had  no  children,  and  that  Lacs 
w^as  the  brother-in-law  of  the  widow. 

"  Did  you  demand  that  tliis  man  become 
your  husband?"  asked  the  rabbi. 

"  I  did,  and  he  refused,"  said  the  woman 

"  Did  you  refuse  to  marry  this  woman? " 
asked  the  rabbi  of  Lacs. 

"  I  did,  because  1  have  already  taken  a 
■v^ife." 

A  portion  of  the  Talmud  was  read  by  the 
rabbi,  who,  at  the  end  of  the  reading,  pro- 
duced a  sandal  of  peculiar  and  ancient  pat- 
tern. It  was  made  of  two  pieces  of  leather, 
and  was  fastened  with  latches  and  t^o  long 
thongs.  Stooping,  he  fastened  this  to  the 
foot  of  Lacs. 

The  widow  was  then  directed  to  kneel  in 
front -of  the  man  and  use  only  her  rlglat 
hand  to  untie  the  shoe.  After  this  was 
done  she  arose,  held  the  shoe  high  above 
her  head  and  cast  it  on  the  floor  in  front 
of  her-  brother-inlaw.  At  the  '  same  time 
she  spat  on  the-  floor  at  his  feet. 

The  two  principals  were  then  directed  to 
repeat  after  the  rabbi.  The  Senators  then 
said:  ' 

"  We  are  here  present  to  see  that  you  are 
released  from  each  other  forever.  Each 
can  go  his  way,  as  each  is  free." 

The  ceremony  of  the  shoe  was  based 
upon  one  of  the  oldest  of  the  laws 
Qf  Moses,  According  to  the  faith,  a  wife 
is  like  unto  a  shoe,  under  the  power  and 
direction  of  the  husband,  therefore,  the 
casting  away  of  the  proposed  wife  a!s' sym- 
bolized by  the  throwing  away  of  the,shoe. 

After  the  ceremony  the  young  -widow, 
now  free  to  marry  whom  she  pleased,  went 
to  the  home  of  her  mother-in-law,  Mrs. 
Sarah  Lacs,  at  1,007  Second  Avenue,  where 
she  will  remain  until  she  leaves  for  her 
home  in  Roumania.  .        .  .

ATTACKS  MR.  GREATSINGER. 

Col.  D.  E.  Austen  Incensed  at  Private 
Secretary  Spauldin^'s  Failure 
to  Do  Camp  Duty. 

The  discussion  of  the  trouble  between  Col. 
David  E.'  Austen,  commanding  the  Thir- 
teenth Regiment,  and  Franklin  J.  Spauld- 
ing,  a  private  in  the  organization  and  pri- 
vate secretary  to  President  Greatsinger  of 
the  Brooklyn  Rapid  Transit  Company,  is 
becoming  acrimonious.  Col.'  Austen's  re- 
marks intimated  that  President  Great- 
singer  did  not  want  hia  employes  to  join 
the  National  Guard.  However,  the  Colonel - 
was  wroth,  at  the  puhllcatiori  of  stories 
yesterday,  slating  that  he  intended  to  dis- 
charge Spaulding  from  the  regiment  with- 
out a  trial. 

The  regiment'  was  ordered  into  camp  at 
Fisher's  Island  on  July  5.  Spaulding  did 
not  gb.  A  few  days  before  the  regiment 
,  started  Col.  Austen  received  a  letter  from 
'President  Greatsinger,  in  which  he  said:, 
"  Owing  to  certain  changes  which  have 
taken  place  in  the  force  in  my  private  of- 
fice, where  Mr.  Spaulding  is  employed,  he 
has  felt.it' necessary  to  ask  to  be  excused 
from  camp  duty  this  year.  I  certainly  ap- 
prove of  this  action  on  his  part,  as  his  ab- 
sence from  i  the  office  at  this  time,  urMer 
existing  conditions,  would  cause  consider- 
able inconvenience." 

And  in  a  last  pargraph  of  his  letter,  re- 
ferring to  a  previous  communication  from 
Col.' Austen  requesting  transportation  and 
saying  that  he  (Austen)  considered  the 
charge  of  5  cents  a  man  sufficient,  instead 
of  the  charge  of  $6  for  each  extra  car,  Mr. 
Greatsinger  said  that  lie  would  .comply 
with  the'  request,  but  said  that  reduced 
rates  and  free  cars  had  been  given  the 
regiment  before,  and  he  thought  the  reglr 
merit  should  noft  be  indebted  in  this  fashion. 
Col.  Austen  said  of  this  yesterday: 
"  When  I  received  that  letter  I  wrote  to 
■"General  Manager  Brackenrldge,  telling  him 
to  charge,  full  price,  as  I  did  not  think  the 
regiment  ivas  indebted.-  Instead,  I  told  him 
1  thought  it  was.  the  duty  of  the  company 
to  aid  the  National  Guard.  As  to  ever  hav- 
ing free  cars,  we  have_  had  two-,  oile  for 
Gen.,  Brooke  and  one  for  the  Secretary  of 
War.  I  never  thought  they  were  intended 
as  a  favor  to  the  regiment,  bot  as  a.  com- 
pliment to  the  gentlemen. 

"  I  have  written  Mr.  Greatsinger,  asking 
him  if  the  connection  of  any  of  nis  em- 
ployes with  the  Brooklyn  Rapid  Transit 
Company,  wfll  Interfere  with  their  duties 
In  the  miljtla.  I  will  t;alce  no  action  until 
I  he^r  from  him.  Spaulding  caifae  to  see 
me,  anfl'  asked  me  to  explain  the  matter. 
I  told  hlnKthat  thei'e  was  no  explanation, 
as  I  was^^otng  everything  for  his  -interests. 
I  do  net  Intend  to  have  him  pay  delin- 
quent fees  to.  the.  regiment  out  of  his 
salary  If  Mr:  Greatsinger  has  no  patriot- 
ism, and  win  not  let  him  attend.  I  will 
discharge  him.  The  story  that  I  have  totd' 
the  Adjutant  to  discharge  hlm^  is  false. 
I  have  taken  no  action,  and  will  not  until 
I  hear  from  Mr.  Greatsinger.  .If  he  will 
allow  the  man  to  attend  to  his  duty,  ■why 
I  will  be  glad  'to  have  him.  If  not,  I  will 
discharge  him." 

President  Greatsinger  when  spoken  to 
about  the  matter  said  that  had  .Spaulding 
-wanted  to  go  with  his  regiment  to  Fisher's 
/Island  he  -woiild  have  been  permitted  to 
have  done  so. 

"  As  it  was,"  continued  the  President, 
"  he  felt  that  he,  being  the  Only  one  fa- 
miliar with  the  work  and  details  of  the 
Office,  should  remain  at  his  post,  having 
Just  at  that  time  been  promoted  by  me 
from  thi  junior  to  the  senior  clerkship  in 
my  office,  and  also  to  the  post  of  private 
secretary.  Had  he  gone  to  -camp  ■with 
the  rest  of  the  boys  it  would  have  been  a 
great  Inconvenience.  He  did  not,  however, 
ask  my  permission  to- leave,  as  had  he  done 
so.I -should  have  let  him  go."

"At  preset  bis  is  the  oi^  red  hat  In

He  regards  the  United  States  as  one  of  the

Gen.  Rafael  Urlbe  Uribe,  --Wiho  Is  again 
battling  in  Colombia  for  liberal  supremacy, 
has  been  declared  an  outlaw  by  the  Co- 
lombian Government.  This  action  carries 
with  it  th^  confiscation  Of  his  property.  It 
is  threatened  that  if  he  dares  to  again 
enter  the  country,  whether  In  time  of  peace 
or  war,  he  will  be  imprisone*  for  life. 

El  Heraldo,  the  semi-official  newspaper, 
inspired,  it  ip  said,  by  his  enemies,  also  de- 
mands the  immediate  dismissal  of  Dr.  Car- 
los Martinez  Si^va  from  the  office,  of  Co- 
lombian, Minister  to  this  country.  It  gives 
as  its  reason  for  this  demand  -  the  confer- 
ence between  Gen.  Uribe  and  Minister  Mar- 
tinez Silva,  which  the  paper  claims  com- 
promised the  Government.  The  diplomatic 
represent^ive,  It  Is  sa4d,  referred  to  the 
rebel  General  as  a  "  brave  soldier."  - 

NotwlthstandiJi'g  his  official  exile-  from 
Colombian  aoIl.Njen.  Urlbe  is  back  in  the 
turbulent  republid,  with  15,000  men  under  his 
command.  Bometieflnlte  information  of  his 
whereabouts  and  tJie  work  he  has  done 
since  returning  so  The  field  was  expected 
yesterday  by-OlIe  .Steamer  Hildur,  which, 
however,  hais  been  delayed -and  will  prob- 
ably not  arrive  until  Saturday.  ■ 

That  the  departure  from  >£re  of  Gen. 
Urlbe  and  the  stories  that  arms  were  be- 
ing shipped,  has  caused  some  uneasiness 
to  Consul  General  de  .frlgard  and  the 
.  legation  at  Washington,  is  quite  certain.  - 
Gen.  Herbert  O.  'Jeffries,  Adjutant  Gen- 
eral of  the  Department  of  Panama,  who  is 
in  the  city,  announces'  that  the  object  of 
his  visit  is  to  purchase  a  vessel  to  he 
used  on  the  coast  as  a  gunboat  The  De- 
partment of  Panama,  which  acts  indepeh- 
dently  of  the  Federal  Government  has  re- 
cently shipped  several  cannon  from  this 
port  Gen.  Jeffries  admits  that  the  rebels 
are  again  showing  considerable  activity. 
He  says  that  he  knew  when  he  came  here 
that  Gen.  Urlbe  was  preparing  to  stir  up 
trouble.         ,  ,  ' 

Francis  A.  Gudger,  who  recently  resigned 
his  position  as  tjnlted  States  Vice  Consul 
"General  at  Panama,  Colombia,  arrived  here 
yesterday  on  the  steamship  ,Advance  from 
Colon.  When  told  that  Gen.  Urlbe  Urlbe 
had  sailed  for  the  Isthmus,  the  ex-Vice 
Consul  General  did  not  sjeem  surprised,  al- 
though he  said  he  had  not  Heard  of  it  be- 
-fore.  "  You  can't  be  surprised  at  anything 
about  that  revolution,"  he  remarked.  \ 

Mr.  Gudger  '  said  the  Conservatives  or 
Government  supporters,  came  into  power Jn 
Colombia  in  1884,  and  they  "have  been  there 
ever  since.  Theoretically,  there  are  sup- 
posed to  be  periodic  elections,  but  when 
these  take  place  only  members  of  the  ruling 
party  cast  votes.  TJie  Liberals  have  never 
had  any  real  power  in  the  State  at  all. 

In  'Venezuela,  Ecuador,  -  and  ■  Nicaragua 
the  Liberals  hold  to  the  same  principles 
as  do  those  of  Colombia,-  but  In  the  former 
three  countries  they  are  the  ruling  powers, 
having  their  men  in  the  Presidents'  chairs. 
In  Colombia,  Mr.  Gudger  says,  church  and 
State  are,  in  theory,  not  connected.  The 
Liberals,  however,  call  the  Conservatives 
the,  church  party.    In  the  other  three  Re- 

? utiles  the  church  Is  entirely  separated 
rom  the  State,  for  the  present  at  least, 
both  theoi«tically  and  practically.  The 
Liberals  of  all  four  countries  profess  to  be- 
lieve In  freedom  of  speech,  freedom  of'  the 
press,  and  an  absolute  separateness-  of 
ecclesiastical  matters  from  matters  politi- 
cal, *  -  . 


WASHINGTON,  July  31.-^Arturo  De  Bri- 
gard  is  in  the  city  in  consultation  with  the 
officials  of  the  Colombian  Legation.  They 
are  considering  the  seizure  of  Murrillo,  one 
of  the  aides  of  Gen.  Urlbe,  at  Cartagena, 
some  time  ago.  According  to  officials  at 
the  legation  the  passport  with  which  Mtir- 
rillo  was  armed  stated  specifically  the 
peaceful  mission  upon  which  he  was  jour- 
neying. It  is  claimed  that  he  violated  the 
terms  of  his  passport,  and  the  officials  do 
not  believe  that  his  seizure  will  give  rise 
to  diplomatic  trouble  ■with  Germany. 

Officials  at  the  legation  scout  the  Idea 
that  Qen.  Uribe  has  Invaded  Colombia  with 
15,000  men.  They  know, ,  however,  that  he 
has  purchased  arms  in  Belgium  and  that 
he  went  to  Curacao- arid  from  there  to  the 
Venezuelan  frontier,  whence  he  was  to 
launch  his  expedition.  According  to  all  the 
Information  obtained  here,  however,  and 
the  legation  has  news  from  the  seat  of  Gov- 
ernment at  Bogota  up  to  the  27th,  the  in- 
vasion has  not  actually  taken  place,  and 
no  battles  have  been  fought. 

There  is  no  Information  at  the  legation, 
it  is  claimed,  confirmatory  of  the  report 
that  Masonic  bodies  have  contributed  sup- 
port to  Uribe  oh  account  of  the  hostility  of 
the  present  Colombian  Government  toward 
Masonry. 

Mr:  Herran,  the  ChargS  d' Affaires,  ex- 
plains that  the  alleged  hostility  against 
Mansonry  in  Colombia  is  not  against  that 
order  alone,  but  against  all  secret  orders. 
The  secret  lodges,  he  says,  are  made  the 
plotting^  grounds  for  intriguers  and  revolu- 
tionists, and  'the  order  for  their  suppres- 
sion is  due  to  that  fact  alone. 


FIRE  NEAR  STEAMSHIP  PIERS.

IN  THE  SHOPS. 

Here  is  a  chance  for  the  golf  girl  and  a 
rerjular  bargain  IJ  she  ever  saw  one  in  her, 
life.  It 'is  In  little  white  turnovers  to  -wear 
with  her  stocks,  the  prettiest  of  fhie  Irhlte 
hemstltdhed  turnovers,  and  in  the  front 
corners  on  eittier  side  a  pair  of  golf  clubs 
crossed.  These  are  in  a  shade  or  shades 
of  brown  silk,  and  there  is. a  golf  ball  also 
on.  either  side  in  white,  and  all  for  10  cents. 
This  Is  hand  pmbroidery,  and  certainly  the 
collars-  are  as  attractive  as  anything  that 
ever,  was  made  in  this  line,  and  worth  three 
times 'the  money. 

•  It  would  be  a  bargain  at  any  price  for  the 
"  Pan  Am  "  girl,  for  there  is  the  dearest, 
nttle  buffalo  on  the  two  ends,  of  the  Pan- 
American  sca,rfs.  -These  are  in  red,  blue, 
black,  and  in  White,  the  buffalo  on  the  ends 
of  the  colored  scarfs  embroidered  in  white 
andr  those  dn  the  white  scarfs  In  brown. 
The  sca-rfs  are  in  silk,  of  course,  and  -will 
tie  Into  something  like  a  short  aScot  If 
there  ever  was  such  a  thing.  ■' 

*•*  - 

The  woman  who  wears  black  has  to  pay 
15  cents  apiece  for  her  solid  black  turnover 
stiff  linen  ccrtlars.  There  Is  one  thing  about 
these,  however,  no  matter  how  warni  and 
^uncomfortable  the  woman,  may  be  if  she 
can  keep  the  collar  from  wilting  no  amount- 
of'car  dust  or  street  d,ust  will  make  it  look 
soiled.  ■    ■     J  - 

■  •  ■  ■ .  ■,  "  '**:  ■ '  ■  ■'   '  - 

Here  Is  something  tax  the  babies:  '  A 
whole  set  of  tin  1sand  molds,  fishes,  a  dog's 
head,  and  any  number -of  little  fancy  dishes 
which  ■will  make  the  most  delectable  sand 
cakes  not  to  be  equaled  by  .a  French  pastry 
cook,  and  all  for  twenty;-five  cents. 

Another  thing  .which  is  a  treasure  for  the 
baby  Is'  a  set  which  will  also  delight  the 
children,  of  an  older  gro^wth  who  make  be- 
lieve play  with  the  younger  ones  for  the 
jsake'  of  dra^wlng  around  ip  a  basin  of 'water 
with  a  little  Iron  rod  crabs  as  natural  as 
life,  lobsters,  red  ones  and  black  ones,  a 
frog  as  green  as  grass,  a  steam  launch,  a 
boat  with  a  mother  and  child  in  It,  and 
another  with  what  seems  to  be  armament 
of  some  kind,  to  say  nothing  of  ducks  a^nd 
fishes. 

This  is  for  the  babies  in  the  house  on  a 
rainy  day,  and  it  will  keep  half  a  dozen  of 
them  quiet,  for  there  are  about  that  number 
of  pencils  with  different  colored  crayons. 
The  case  looks  like  a  row  of  tiny  books 
made  on  purpose  for  the  little  ones,  but  it 
opens  in  the  centre  of  the  binding  of  thg 
books,  and  there  are  the.%  fine  long  pencils, 
as  good  as  papa  himself  mighty  use,  a  pen, 
an  eraser,  and  a  sponge,'  and  all  for  ^ 
cents. 

*•*  ■ 

There  are  the  nicest  rubber  balls  for  the 
children  which  would  do  the  least  damage  . 
ih  the  world  in.  the  house  and  not 'a'  bit  of 
harm  on  the  piazza,  balls  ■which  are  kitten' 
heads  and  balls  which  are  queer  little  hu- 
man figures  looking  as  if  they  had  been 
blown  up  with  a  soap  bubble  pipe.  : 

•••• 

How  is  this  for  a  silk  bathing  suit?  The 
niaterial  is  black  tliffeta,  and  there  Is  a 
sailor  dollar  of  pongee  stitched  with  black- 
end  a  belt  and  sash  fastened  at  One  side 
of  the  same  material.  The  suit  is  simply 
made,  the  bodice  like  a'  shirtwaist,  plaih 
in  the  Back,  and  with .  three  clusters  of 
narrow  tucks  running  lengthwise  in  the 
front,  the  collar  leaving  a  little  pointed 
front  above  it  of  the  black"  and  a  little 
standing  collar  is  of  the  black  aleo,  and 
tucked.  The  skirt  is  perfectly  plkln,  fin- 
ished with  a  narrow  hem  at:.the  lower  edgfe. 
fitted  at  the""  front"  and  sides,  and  simply 
gathered  in  the.  back. 

'  Other;  black  taffeta  suits  made  similarly, 
but  without  the  tucks',  have  collars  of  red 
or  pale  blue  silk  ^trimmed  wfth  a  narrow 
braid  In  black  and  white.  All  have  high 
necks,  the  material  inside  the  broad  collar 
being  of  the  bright  silk  with  the  stock. 
The  sleeves  of  all  are  made  plain  and 
straight,  short,  and  rounding  up  on  the  top, 
slashed  up  to  the  arm  hole  on  the  shonldcr. 

Pretty  ties  have  deep-plaited  ends  of  col- 
or, say,  pale  blue  on  white.  The  ties  are 
of  good  material  and  well  teade,  and  are 
consequently  worth  while. 

■  ■ -  *•* 
Attractive  white  ties  are  finished  on  the 
ends'  ■with  sprigs  of  embroidery  of  .single 
flowers,  daisies,  or  forget-me-nots,  or  toses. 
The  ties  are  of  fine  latra. 


COLOMBIAN  INYASION  OR 
"YENEZUELAH  REYOLT"? 


Reported  .Gatheptng  of  Insurgents 
Under  Gen.  Calviras. 


COMPLICATIONS  ARE  FEARED 


No  American  Warship  In  South  Amerl- 
'  can  Waters— President  Castro  Says 
Calviras  Has  Been  Repelled. 


WILLEMSTAD,  Island  of  Curacao,  D. 
W.  I.,  July  31.— Gen.  Rangel  Calviras,  at 
the  head  of  5,000  men,  has  "  revolted " 
against  President  Castro  of  Venezuela. 
The  insurgents  are  near  SalT'Aiitonlo  de 
Tachira,  on  the  Colombian  frontier,  "rtie 
'Venezuelan  Government  has  sent  10,000  sol- 
diers to  the  scene  of  the  uprising. 

The  situation  is  grave.  Other  outbreaks 
are  expected.  The  whole  country  is  ready 
to '  rise  against  the  arbitrary  methods'  of 
President  Castro.  Constitutional  guaran- 
tees have  been  suspended  aiid  complica- 
tions .with  Colombia  are  feared.  .  ' 


ASHIfJOTON,  July  31.-The  State  De- 
partment to-day  received  the  following  tele- 
gram from  the  American  Legation  at  Car- 
acas, Venezuela: 

Martial  law  has  been  declared  In  Venemela 
by  the  President  of  the  country  In  consequence 
of/  the  Invasion  by  a  .revolutionary  f orca"  ttovi 
Oolombla.  It  is  reported  that  an 'army  of^0,000 
men  will  meet  the  Invaders.  - 

to  the  hour  when  the  departments 
closed  to-day  the  State  Department  had  not 
called  on  the  Navy  Department  for  a  ship 
to  go  Into  Venezuelan  waters.  In  view  'of 
the  serious  condition  of  affairs  there  and 
the  unsettled  condition  In  the  n^hbortng 
republic  of  Colombia,  it  is  not  improbable 
that  an  American  *arshlp  will  be  sent  to 
the  scene  of  trouble  for  the  protection  of 
American  interests. 

About  the  only  ship  available'ls  the  small 
gunboat  Machlas,  fitting  at  the  Boston 
Navy  Tard.  She  will  not  be  ready  to  sail 
for  about  two  weeks.  There  is  not  an 
Americap  i^arshlp  in  Southern  waters.  In 
case  of  extreme  urgency  one  of  the  battle- 
ships now  in  commission  could  be  sent. 


E.  Gbnzalez  Esteres,  Consul  tSeneral  of 
Venezuela,  when  he  .saw  the  foregojng  dis- 
patch from  Willemstad,  said  there  was  no 
tru«i  in  the  report  of  a  revolution  In  Vene-' 
zuela.  Late  yesterday  afternoon  he  re- 
ceived the  following  messages  from  Presi- 
dent Castro:  ,  . 

Colombian  invtislon  of  Gen.  Rangel  Calviras 
has  been  successfully  repelled.  • 

Calviras  is  -little  known,  and  it  is  sug- 
gested that  the  real  leader  is  hot  yet 
known.  The  name  of  Gen.  Ignacio  An- 
drade,  who  came  to  this  country  incogirfto 
several  weeks  ago,  has  been  mentioned. /At 
the  time  he  came  here  Angel  Fernandez 
also  arrived  with  $20,000  to  buy  armaf  and 
ammunition.  Later  he  sailed  for  Cumcao, 
and  it  la  not  known  whether  he  toolc  the 
money  with  him  or  not. 

President  Castro  has  an  annjr  of  30,000 
men,  well  equipped.  During  the  Colombian 
revolution  last  year  it  was  charged  that 
Castro  was  helping  the  ^evolutionists.  War 
between  the  two  countries  was  threatened, 
biit  a  truce  was  patched  up.

MARKET  MOVEMENT. 

At  yesterday's  opening  the  marltet  was 

'btin  under  the  Influence  of  delay^  In  the 
settlement  of  the  Steel  strilce.  The  Steel 
stocks  themselves  broke  sharply,  but  met 
with  effective  support  and  quickly  ral- 
lied. The  railroad  list  sympathetically 
declined,  ^ut  rallied  with  Steel.  A  period 
of  dullness  ensued  without  any  special 
feature  save  the  continuous  rise  of  Nor- 
folk and  Westem,  which  was  to  some  ex- 
tent folldwed  by  Chesapeake  and  Ohiq. 

False  news  was  put  out  purporting  to 
be  by  telegraph  from  Pittsburg  of  an  Im- 
aginary strike  at  the  Carnegie  Worlts, 
.which  aggravated  the  nervous  feeling. 
A  "further  unsettling  factor  was  .the  rise 
of  a  cent  a  bushel  in  com  despite  contin- 
ued, .favorable  weather  reports  from  the 
com  belt    The  dullness  following  the 

/first  .hour  was  virtually  unbroken  until 
about  2  o'clojsk,  when  a  fresh  and.  .vigor- 
ous di;lve  wd^s  made  at  the  whole  marliet, 
lowest  prices  for  the  day  being  'recorded 
about  half  an  hour  before  the  close—: 
Steel  sMU  being  the  main  object  of  at- 
tack, qpnsldering  the  conditions  noted 
and  the  small  volume  of  buslness-^total 
sales  amounting  to  not  much  over  4S0,r 
000  shares— the  notable  feature  was  the; 
stubbbm  resistance  of  the  railroad  list, 
very  few  declines  of  a  point  or  more  be- 
ing effected,  fractional  losses  the  rule. 
This  IS  sbow'naln  the  following  Ust*,^of 
noteworthy  net  declines:  Mlssoiiri  Pa- 
dlflc,  1J4:  New  Tqrk  Ceiitral,  !;  Toledo. 
St.  liouis  and  Western,  l%r-ho  other  act- 
ive railroad  stock  recording  a  full  ppint 
loss.  Qn  the  other  hand,  the  following 
net  gains  showed:  Canada  Southern,  IH; 
Norfolk  and  "Western  common,  2%;  Nor- 
folk and.  Western  preferred,  1.  In  the  In- 
dustrials declines  of  a  point  or  m.ore  were 
American  Smelters,  1%;  Sugar  Keflning, 
1%;  Colorado  Fuel  and slron,  2;  Interna- 
tional Paper,  1;  Rubber  Goods,  1%;  Ten- 
nessee'Coal  and  Iron,  1.  The  net  declines 
In  the, Steel  stocks  were  2%  for  the  com- 
mon and  3%  for  the  preferred— these, two 
issues  furnishing  about  190,000  shares 
of  the  total  transactions— nea.rly  half  of 

'  the  day's  total.  / 

It  is  plain  that  ttie  public  caniiot  be 
expected  to  come  into,  the  market  until 
the  question  of  the  Steel-Strike  Is  out  of 
the  way.»  So  much  stress  has  been  laid 
upoo  this  matter  that  Its  settlement  is  a 
necessary  precedent  to  revival  of  spefcu-_ 
laitive  Interest.  That  it  is  receiving  ex- 
aggerated consideration  there  -seems  to 
be  no  doubt,  as  the  matters  lif  dispute  be- 
tween the  United  States  Steel  Corpora- 
ion  and  the  Amalgamated  ^Association 
may.  be  fitly  described  as  of  etiquette 
rather  than  of  vital  Import.  There  is  no 
complaint  on  the  part  of  the  strikers  as 
to  wages— no  question  as  to  the  mutua^ 
prosperity  of  the  capital  knd  labor  En- 
gaged—but a  difference  of  opinion  as  to 
under  what  rules  and  regulations  the 
various  mills  and  foundries  shall  be  con- 
ducted. That  a  determination  of  such 
comparative^  trivial  matters  cannot  be 
arrived  at  s^edily  would  be  to  doubt  the 
common  sense  of  the  parties  in  argu- 
ment, and  the  vcSSPt  reliable  dispatches 
from  the  seat  of  trouble  yesterday  de- 
scribed the  situation  as  waiting  upon  the 
arrangement  of  details.  In '  all  such  dis- 
putes it  is.  natural  that  some  bad  feeling 

.be  generated. and  either,  side  Is  liable  to 
say  much  more  thftn  it  means.  Sifting 
out  fact  from  rumor.  It  seems  reasonably 
certain  that  the  points  In  Issue  wll^  be 
soon  anricabljr  settled— and  certiainly  the 
listeady  support  found  in  the  market  for 
the  Steel  stocks  on  all  declines  indicates 
that  insiders  ;take'  this  view- the'  entire 

.variation  in. the  common  stock  yesterday 
being  2Vi  points  on  transactions  of  over 
117,000  shares.

BILBA6,  July  31.— The  position  of  af-

Great  difficulty  is  experienced  in  the  set-

operations  have  been  large.  Money  is  most 
scarce  for  carrying  over,  and*tates  are  ox-

BPSTON,  July  31.— The  month  of  J;uly 
goes  out  with  the  speculative  situation  un^ 
der  the  spell  of  an  extreme  midsumtner 
dullness.  Commission  houses  are  almost 
deserted,  and  the  "  Street"  wear^^a  holiday 
appearance.  Conditlqns  are  now  about  as 
bad  in  the  matter  of  a  restricted  specula- 
tion as  they  were  a-  year  ago  at  this  time. 
Many  of  the  larger  operators  havcf  left 
town,  and  the  stay-at-homes  are  neither 
disposed  nor  able  to  impart  '-Quch  life  to 
the  market. 

.Three  per  cent,  is ,  still  the  curt-ent  loan- 
ing, rate  between  banlcs  at  the  Clearing

figure.  Exchanges,  $21,194,486;  balances,

was  downward  in  the  stock  market  to-day, 
though  no  marked  i:  presslon  was  mirda 
upon  the  local  list  by  he  weakness  in  New  ■ 
York,  until  In  the  las  hour,  when  the  sud- 
den drop  .  In  United  f  "ates  Steel  unsettled 
the  list.  Cambria  S  ^el  fell  %,  and  tho 
warrants  %;  Liehlgh  lUe^  went  off  %,  on 
a  few  sales,  and  Re;  ling,  is^ue^  all  grew 
slightly  weaker.  Apa  ;  Irom  the  arbitrage 
stocks,  the  market  v  is  Ufeless. 

Money  was  harder  to  get  to-day,  and  ' 
while  call  loan^were  made  at  4  per,  cent,

OUTSIDE  SECURITIES. 

IiUtie  business  was  transafted  In  the  out- 
•Idd  market  yesterday,  "f^ie  continued  dull- 
/iMs  on  the  Stock  Exchange  gave  no  Im- 
petus to  outside  trading,  and  curb  stocks, 
left  to  themselve.s,  presented  little  of  spe- 
cial/interest. The  same  stocks  which  for  a 
number  of  days  past  have  beeh  the  most 
active  Issues,  again  furnished  the  major 
portion  of  the  day's  small  total,  and  even 
In  these  securities  the  movements  of  prices 
were  small.  For  the  most  part,  the  inarket 
ataowed  a  reactionary  tendency,  and  unim- 
portant declines,  opcurred  In  a  number  of 
issues.  Here  and  there  4n  the  list,  how- 
ever, substantlar  advances  were  made. 

*•* 

American  Can  common  was  dealt  In  to 
the  extent  of  less  than  J, 000  shares,  the 
amallest  total  which  the  stock  has  shown 
In  many  days,  f  he  stock' sold  from  2iVi 
dowT^o  -'3%;  and  closed  at  bid.  a  net 
loss  of  half  a  p-olnt.  ^The  Preferred  sold

COBRE  GRANDE  COPPER  SUIT. 

Application  for  the  Appolittment  of  a 
Receiver— Charges  Against  WMI- 
iam  C.  Greene. 

Application  for  the  appointment  of  a  re- 
ceiver for  the  Cobre  Grande  Copper  Com- 
pany wais  made  yesterday  before  Justice 
d'Glonnan,  in  the  Supreme  Court,  In  it 
su:t  brought  against  that  corporation  and 
the  Green'e  Consolidated  Copper  Coiqpany 
by  Axel  'W.  Hallenberg  of  the  backing  firm 
of  Armstrong,.  Schlrmer  &  Co.,  who  was 
represented  by  Alfred  B.  Cruikshank  of  the 
law  f^m  of  Atwater  &  Crulluhank.  De- 
cision was  reserved. 

The  mining  property,  which  is  said  by 
counsel  to  be  worth  |39;00O,00O,  is  situated 
in  Sonora,'  Slexico,  and  was  sold  by  •'Will- 
iam C.  Greene  to  the-Cobre  Grande  Copper 
Company  for  ^30,000.  Mr.  Cruilcshank 
stated' that- in  October,  1899,  Mr.  Greene, 
WHO  was  a  Director  in  the  company,  went 
to  the  mines  and,  with  aii  armed  force  and 
a  pretended  order,  written  In  Spanish^  from 
a  Mexican  court,  frightened  the  American 
Superintendent  on  the  ground  Into  surren- 
derlng  the  mines  to  him. 

After  this  seizure,  said  Mr.  Cruiksha-nk, 
Mr.  Greene  formed  the  Greene  Consolidated 
Copper  Company,  whlcB  is  In  possession  of 
tfie  property,  aqid  ~whose  stock  is  being  ex- 
tensively sold  in  the  East. 

Numerous  suits  were  instituted  by  the 
officers  of  the  Cobre  Grande  Company  to 
obtain  the  control  of  the  mines,  the  prin- 
cipal action  being  tried  in  Arizona' In  No- 
vember, 1900.  Another  suit,  Mr.  Cruik- 
Ehank  said,  was  still  pending  in  New  Torls 
to  recover  $28,000  of  copper  matte,  which 
■was  shipped  by  Mr,  Greene,  and  which  was 
Claimed  by  the  Cobre  Grande  Company  and 
attached  here  in  a  replevin  action. 

It  was  asserted,  too,  that  last  Decem- 
ber Mr.  Greene  purchased  a  controlling  in- 
terest in  the  stock  of  the  Cobre  Grande 
Copper  Company,  had  himself  elected  Prem- 
dent,  and  then  had  all  the  suits  brought  by 
tha,t  company  against  himself  and  iils^u- 
Boctates  dismissed,  Mr.  Crull(shank  claims, 
by  collusion. 

Mr.  Cruikshank  asked,  too,  that  the  dis- 
missals of  these  suits  be  set  aside,  and 
stated  the  object  in  ha'vlng  a  receiver  was 
that  he  might  proceed  to  recover  whatever 
matte  might  be  shipped  into  New  Tork 
State  until  a  debt  of  140,000  due  Mr.  Hal- 
l-^nberg  was  paid  and  the  .stock  held  by  him 
Hiade  good.  . 

The  application  was  opposed  by  H.  IE. 
Harby,  counsel  for  Mr.  Greene  and  his  as- 
poclates,  who  said  that  the  charges  made 
-.vere  without  foundation,  and  that  Mr. 
Greene  had  aeteyyl thin  his  legal  rights.

ft  Approximated  1,900  Per  Cent,  of  the 
Bank's  Capital  Stock  «r  95O0.OOQ. 

The  exact  amoont  of  the  linprecedented 
cividehd  recently  declared  .by  the  five  di- 
rectors of  the  First  National  Bank  became 
clefinltely  known  In  banldng.  circles  yester- 
day. It  approximated  1900  per  cent,  of  tb'e 
capital 'stopk  of  fSOO.OOO,  but  was  a  stock 
dividend  and  not  a  cash  dividend,  provision 
being  made  for  its  payment  In  shares  of  tbe 
banCs  new  stock. 

OfiScials  of  the  bank  declined  to  say 
what  was  the  exact  method  ot  fteanelhg 
the  merger  ot  the  National  Bank  or  the' 
Hepubllc,  but  the  1900>>per  cent  dividend 
was  referred  to  as  coi^eot  by  one  of  the  of< 
riclals  concerned.  ^ 

■While  the  First  National  Bank  may  reach 
out  for  some  other  institution  later,  It  Is 
lasserted  that  just  now  no  other  mergsr  Is 
under  contemplation.

Story  of  |0O,OOOtOQ||^orporatlon  fS«vived 
in  St^  Louis. 

ST.  LOUIS,  Juljy  Sl.^A  local  newspaper 
to-day  revives  the  story  that  negotiations 
are  pending  for  the  consolidation  of  the 
leading  photographic  dry-plate  factories  of 
"'the  United:  ptates  .'and  Europe,  with  a 
capital  of'  ^,000,Oed.  •  Three  of  the  com- 
panies concerned  are  St  >X'0Uis  firms,  that 
turn  out  80  per  cent,  of  the  plates  used  in 
the  United  States.  The  following  state- 
ment of  the  plan  was  made'^  the  Fresl- 
ilent  of  a  leading  company: 

"  While  the  consolidated  concern,  if  the 
deal  Shalt  go  through,  will  have  control  of 
the  dry-plate  output  of  the  world,  I  hardly 
think  it  will  have  the  power  to  name  its 
own  prices.  If  It  desires  to  do  so.  Many 
small  companies  will  not  be  absorbed,  and 
they  will  turn  out  enough  plates  to  keep 
competition,  alive.-"

COTTON.— The  market '  started  quiet  as  to 
tone,  with  prices  2{ji3  points  higher  on  light  pit 
buying  and  scattering  fol-elgn  demand.  Firmer 
Liverpofjl  cables  than  looked  for.  dry  weather 
news  from  th*  greater  part  of  the  Southwest, 
and  not  altogether  favorable  crop  news,  prompt- 
ed this  demand.  But  the  supporting  orders  were 
soon  exhausted  and  room  selling  became  a 
feature  |r  a  small  way.  Under  this  pressure 
prices  eased  off  slowly  until  a  net  decline  of 
2@4  -points  was  In  evidence.  From  this  out 
business  was  stupidly  tame,  and  entirely  of  a 
professional  character.  There  was  nothing  in 
late  news  to  effect  sentiment,  and  the  whole 
.trade  seemed  to  be  holding  off  for  the  August 
Governm'ent  report  of  next  Monday.  Business 
from  the  South  was  singularly  light,  while  com- 
mission houses  failed  to  Interest  the  public. 
Spot  cotton  markets  here  and  In  the  South  ex- 
hibited, a  fair  degree  of  steadiness,  but  were 
neglected  and-  generally  unchanged.  Cloth  mar- 
ket advices  were  featureless,  showing  sustained 
prices,  but  Summer  dull  trade  conditions.  Crop 
accounts  reflected  improving  conditions  east  of 
the  Mississippi,  but  more-  .imperative  need  of 
rain  over  large  areas  west  of  that  river,  notably 
In  Centi-al  Texas.  Paris.  Texas,  received  1.50 
Inches  and  Bussellville,  Ark.,'  received  3  Inches 
within  the  past  twenty-four'  hours.  But  tfa^se 
tains  were  entirely  local  and  relieved  the  drought 
only  at  those  points.  The  August  option  In  the 
local  market'  received  very  little  attention,  and 
very  few,  notices  were  issued.  Liverpool  ckble.s 
were  about  as  expected  after-the  earl.v  advance, 
showing  a  general  desire  abroad  to  conform  with 
any  variation  in  the  market  here.  In  the  last 
half  hoyr  the  market  stiffened  up. several  points 
on  room  covering  and -absence  of  sellers.  The 
close  was  steady,  with  prices  net  2  points  higher 
to  5  points  lower. 

Spot  Jotton  closed  dull  but  steady,  with 
quotations  unchanged,  on  the  basis  of  8 1-lfic 
for  middling  upland  and  S  3-lflc  for  mid- 
dling gulf.  Sales,  4,050  bales.  Southern  spot

BRBADSTUFPS,— Wheat— For  a  good  patti 
of  the  day  wheat  showed  moderate  steadiness,  of 
tone  In  sympathy  with  corn,  but  final  unloading 
and  short  selling  wound  up  the  market  rather 
weak  in  tone  at  96c  net  decline.  Outside  of  the 
com  Influence  conditions  were  mostly  unfavor- 
able for  advancing  prices,  'ftiey  Included  sat- 
isfactory Northwest  crop  prospects,  a  small  ex- 
port trade  In  comparison  with  Tuesday's  big 
business.  Irregular  cables,  a  heavy  Interior 
movement,  and  early  foreign  selling.  Much  of 
the  time  speculative  tirade  was  slow  and  feat- 
ureleaa,  with  prices  close  to  the  opening  point. 
Euept  for  the  European  sales  it  consisted 
chiefly  of  local  business.  Opening  prices  In  an- 
swer to  Liverpool  steadiness  were  practically 
unchanged  from  the  previous  night,  at  74V4c  for 
September,  but  eventually  sold  off  to  73  11-16<;, 
with  the  close  73?ic.  The  primary  receipts  aggre- 
gated 1,121,500  bushels,  compared  with  878.000 
bushels  a  year  ago.  Seaboard  wheat  and  flour 
clearances  were  fair.  The  close  at  Liverpool 
was  somewhat  easier  at  only  m  net  advance, 
while  Paris  markets  showed  B  to  10  points  ad- 
vance. At  Berlin  last  prices  were  1^  marks 
up,  and  at  Budapeat  1  point  net  higher.  Export 
trade  consisted  of  47  loads,  :half  of  It  at  New

HIGHEST  BIDDER  GETS 
GARBAGE  CONTRACT 


Awarded  by  Board  of  Estimate  De- 
spite Controller  Coler's  Protest. 


Sanitary  Utilization  Company's  Bid  of 
$232,000  Accepted  Through  May- 
or's Influence. 


Thtre  was  a  contest  at  the  meeting  of 
the  Board  of  Estimate  yesterday  over  the 
contract  for  the  removal  of  garbage  from 
the  Borough  of  Manhattan.  Controller 
foiei-  and  President  Guggcnhelmer  cop- 
trnded  that  the  price  was  excessive;  but 
mayor  Van  Wyck,  Corporation  Counsel 
AVhrtlcn.  and  President  Peltnef  of  the  De- 
partment of  Taxes  and  Assessment  voted 

■  lor  the  award  of  the  contftict  to  the  Sani- 
tary riLlization  Company  for  five  years. 

Th^  price  which  was  paid  during  the  past 
five  ycurs  under  a  contract  made  with  the 
same  company  was  less  than  $90,000.  The 
contract'  awarded  yesterday  t?i  the  same 
company  for  the  same  work  by  the  in- 
fluence of  Mayor  Van  Wyck  was  at  $232,000 
a  year!  notwithstanding  the'fact  that  Con- 
trolltr  Coler  and  President  Guggenheimer 
made  a  strong  protest. 
This  is  the  first  break  which  has  pccurred 
I*        among  the  members  of  the  Board  of  Esti- 

■  mate  in  &ome  time.  Controller  Coler  and 
President  Guggenheimer  said  that  an  in- 
crease of  $14;i,000  a  year  for  the  same 
•work  or  a  total  of  ?715,000  on  a  five-year 
contract  was  more  than  the  city  should 
be  forced  to  pay. 

Mayor  Van  Wyck:  an<I  the  hea'Ss  of  de- 
^  partments  whom  he  appointed  to  office 
■-.;voted  for  the  contract  without  making  any 
explanations  except  the  statements  con- 
tained in  a  letter  written  by  Street  Clean- 
ing Commissioner  Nagle. 

There  were  bidders  who  offered  to  do  the 
•work  for  less  than  half  the  amount  which 
tile  Sanitary  Utilization  Company  bid.  In 
fact,  Mayor  Van  Wyck,  Corporation  Coun- 
sel Whalen. -and  President  Feitner  of  the 
Department  of  Taxes,  voted  a  Jew  weeks 
ago  to  reject  the  bid  of  the  Sanitary  Utili- 
zation Company  for  $232,000  on  the  ground 
that  it  was  excessive.  Under  a  readver- 
ti-seniLiit  which  was  ordered  hy  the  Board 
of  1-stiroate  the  lower  bids  were  made. 
What  happened  In  the  meantime  to  in- 
fluence Mayor  Van  Wyck  and  the  other 
city  officials  to  change  their  minds  and 
vote  to  accept  a  bid  which  had  already 
l>e'^B  declared  excessive  by  their' own  votes 
,   fild  not  trar.cplre  at  the  meeting. 

Cnntioller  Coler  and  President  Guggen- 
beimer  Intend  to  continue  the  fight  against 
the  contract  for  five  years  at  $232,000  a 
yerir.  Lnder  the  old  contract,  which  expires 
tc-ilay.  li'e  city  has  the  right,  within  ninety 
days,  to  puiohai-e  the  plant  of  the  Sanitary 
T  tilizatioii  Company.  Controller  Coler,  in 
an  interview  with  a  New  York  Times  re- 
port.'P  feaid   last  evening: 

>>-HAT  CONTROLLER  COLER  THINKS. 

"  1 'resident  Gusgenhelmer  and  myself  op- 
pu;^d  the  mijking  of  the  contract  at  $232,- 
(HKi  for  five  years,  but  were  outvotci  by 
3  to  2.  I  said  at  the  meeting  yesterday 
that  it  was  a  mistake  to  readvertise  the 
contract  for  five  years,  but  that  was  no 
rtaton  why  the  city  should  be  asked  .to 
j  ay  an  excessive  price.  I  said  that  untn.-r 
the  oircum-'itances  it  would  be  oetter  for 
tile  city  to  take  advantage  of  the  clauoe 
In  the  old  coatract  that  allows  the  ci.y  to 
take  over  the  plant." 

The  plant  of  the  Sanitary  Utilization 
Company  is  on  Barren  Island.  Before  the 
contract  was  awarded  yesterday  Vice 
President  Tliomas  F.  White  of  the  com- 
pany and  De  Lancey  Nicoll,  who.appeared 
ay.  attorney,  made  statements  as  to  why 
the  contract  should  be  awarded  at  S232,000 
a  year.  The  first  part  of  the  meeting  was 
given  bver  to  the  reading  of  a  letter  from 
btrcot  Cleaning  Commissioner  Nagle. 

Commissioner  Nagle  wrote  that  he  was 
compelled  to  throw  out  the  bid  of  James  J. 
Barrett  for  the  renjoval  of  garbage  from 
the  Korough  of -^Manhattan  at  $120,000  a 
year  on  the  ground  that  Contractor  Barrett 
intended  to  dispose  of  the  garbage  at  Ca- 
narsie  in  ■  a  manner  which  was  proMbited 
by  law.  Commissioner  Nagle  said  that  he 
had  to  reject  the  bid  of  Z.  F.  McGill  &  Co. 
for  SHIl.Ooo  a  year  for  the  Borough  of  Man- 
hattan because  there  were  no  sureties  at- 
tached to  the  bid. 

Commissioner  Nagle  ended  his  epistle  by 
recommending  that  the  Board  of  Estimate 
award  the  contract  to  the  Sanitary  Utili- 
zation Company.  Figures  were  read  which 
Commissioner  Nagle  claimed  proved  that 
the  price  of  J!2:w,(KX)  a  year  was  not  exces- 
sive in  view  of  the  large  increase  in  the 
amount  of  garbage. 

When  the  contract  was  awarded  five 
yenrs  ago  he  wrote  that  the  city  contract- 
ors were  reeiuired  to  handle  jOO  tons  pf 
garbage  a  day,  but  now  there  was  an  aver- 
age of  1,000  tons  a  day.  Commissioner 
Nagle  in  his  letter  quoted  what  he  said 
were  the  official  figures  showing  the  cost 
of  the  removal  of  garbage  in  other  cities, 
wljich  he  claimed  differed  radically  from 
.  tho.-e  supplied  to  Controller  Col?r  by  W.  F. 
jVlorse.  When  the  clerk  finished  reading 
the  letter.  Mayor  Van  Wyck  said: 

•■  I  move  that  the  vote  whereby  this  board 
refu.sed.to  approve  the  contract  with  the 
Sanitary  Utilization  Company  be  reconsid- 
ered ;ind  that  we  now  approve  of  the  Street 
f'leaning  Commissioner's  former  award  of 
the  contract  to  that  company." 

No  member  of  the  Board  of  Estimate 
could  be  heard  to  second  the  motion.  Then 
Z.  F.  McGill  asked  to  be  heard.    He  said: 

"All  I  wish  to  say  is  that  $1  a  ton  is  a 
fair  price  for  the  rftnoval  of  garbage,  and 
If  we  had  plenty  of  time  we  could  have  put 
In  a  hid  to  remove  and  dispose  of  all  the 
garbage  at  that  price." 

"  Are  you  not  the  man  who  had  the  con- 
tract with  the  city  at  one  time?"  asked 
Mayor  Van  Wyck.  "  Didn't  you  have  cre- 
.  matory  plants  on  Staten  Lsland  which  the 
city  was  compelled  to  buy?  " 

"  The  city  was  nok  compelled  to  buy 
them."  said  Mr.  McGill.  "  The  city  found 
that  it  had  made  a  mistake  in  the  form  of 
Its  contract,  and  that  it  could  not  afford  to 
•pay  us  4o  cents  per  ton  for  the  removal  of 
ashes.  We  were  willing  to  go  on  with  the 
contract,  but  the  city  wasn't." 

"  Well,  why  didn't  you  put  in  a  bid  for 
this  contract  Vhlch  would  be  of  use? " 
asked  Mayor  Van  WVck. 

"  Because  it  was  impossible  for  any  out- 
sider to  put  in  a  better  bid  at  two  days',  no- 
tice. That  was  all  the  time  given  us  under 
the  readvertisement  of  the  bids.  It  would 
not  pay  any  one  to  put  up  a  plant  merely 
for  a  one-year  contract.  It  would'  have 
paid  if  we  could  have  got  a  five-year  con- 
tract.   The  advertisement  was  unfair." 

W.  F.  Morse,  who  supplied  Controller 
Coler  with  figures  to  show  that  the  price  of 
$232,000  a  year,for  Manhattan  was  exorbi- 
tant, said: 

MR.  MORSE  ON  MR.  NAGLE'S  FIGURES. 
"  I  was  consMerably  amused  at  the  rapid 

■  manner  in  which  the  Street  CleaniBg  Com- 
missioner disposed  of  my  figures  by  set- 

,  ting  up  against  them  what  he  purports  to 
be  official  figures.  I  still  maintain  that 
iny  figures  are  correct.  At  any  time  In  the 
future  I  will'  be  pleased  to  show  wherein 
thj>  criticisms  of  the  Street  Cleaning  Com- 
missioner are  erroneous." 
■  President  Ouggenhelmer  then  said: 

••  We  had  better  get  down  lo  business  be- 
cause there  wlU  have  to  be  an  arrange- 
ment made  for  the  disposal  of  garbage  to- 
morrow." 

Controller  Coler  then  said: 

"In  view  of  the  fact  that  outside  bid- 
ders "^we  put  to  a  dls^vantage  in  the 
speciflcattons  for  a  one-year  contract  In- 
stead of  a  five-year  contract,  I  think  It 
was  a  mistake  on  the  part  of  the  Finance 
Department  to  have  recommended  the  one- 
year  contract.  We  have  found  out  olurs 
mistake,  and  we  are  willing  to  correct  it.  I 
am  opposed  to  the  city  paying  at  the  rate 
•  of  $232,000  a  year,  because  I  jhink  that  the 
price  is  excessive." 

Controller  Coler  then  exmained  that  the 
danger  of  a  large  loss  to  theVlty  was  immi- 
iient»because  the  Sanitary  Ujlllzatlon  Com- 
pany could  claim  good-will  and  prospective 
profits  and"  thus  force  the  city  to  pay  an 
excessive  price  for  the  plant  according  to 
the  provisions  of  the  old  contract  which 
sUewed  the  city  to  buy  the  plant. 

President  Guggenheimer  said  he  thought 
-  »  temporary  contract  might  be  made. 

"  We  can't  do  that,"  said  Mayor  Van 
■Wyck,  testily. 

The  first  vote  was  taken  on  the  question 
as  to  whether  the  vote  to  reject  the  bid  of 
$2:',2,000  by  the  Sanitary  Company  as  ex- 
.  cessive  should  be  reconsidered.  Controller 
Coler  voted  "No>'  in  a  loud  voice.  Presi- 
dent Guggenheimer  voted  the  same  .way, 
but  the  othe^  three  members  voted  in  favor 
of  the  motion. 

Corporatrbn  Counsel  Whalen  then  brought 
Up  the  question  of  acquiring  the  plant  of 
the  Sanlfary  Company.  During  the  discus- 
sion Mayor  Van  Wyck  became  excited. 
De  Lantey  Nicoll  was  asked  questions.  He 
saldlhat  If  the  company  got  the  new  con- 
trecr  and'  the  city  decided  to  acquire  the 
plant  there  would  be  no  claim  for  good-- 
vlll  or  prospective  profits,  but  the  com- 
pany would'  be  satisfied  to  take  the  new 
Mntract  until  the  dty.  decided  jrlietlier  or , 


not  to  buy  the  plant  under  the  old  con- 
tract. 

Corporation  Counsel  'Whalen  then  dic- 
tated a  resolution,  in  the  preamble  of  which 
the  company  waived  all  right  to  good-will 
and  profits'  under  the  new.  contract,  the 
price  of  the  plant  to  be  fixed  by,  arbitra- 
tion. The  Sanitary  Company  was  to  ap- 
point a  representative,  the  Board  of  ^tl- 
niat^  another,-  and  the  third  to  be  chosen 
by  the  representative*  of  the  city  and  the 
company.  By  resolution  Controller  Coler 
and  President  Guggenheimer  were  appoint- 
ed a  committee  to  arbitrate  with  the  com- 
pany in  regard  to  the  price.  The  meetins 
then  adjourned.

about  a  dozen  ^stsiders  took  part.  The 
Teutonic  was  about  to  sail  for  Liverpool, 
when  the  trouble  started  just  in  front  of 
the  steerage  gangway.  The  cause  of  the 
trouble  was  the  determination  of  about  a 
score  of  eastside  residents  to  give  a  fitting 
send-off  to  Jacob  Blum  of  131  Eldridge 
Street,  ■  Joseph  Driedan  of  183  Chrystie 
Street,  and  Samuel  Grossman  of  176  Chrys- 
tie Street,  on  their  departure  for  Europe 
aboard. the  Teutonic. 

It  was  only  a^few  minutes  before  the 
sailing  hour  when  the  three  passengers 
referred  to  arrived  at  the  pier.  Acoona- 
panylng  them  were  their  friends,  among 
whom .  w£is  Charles  If ramer,  the  eastside 
politician.  As  the  three  passengers  started 
to  go  up  the  gang  plank  their  friends  sur- 
rounded them  and  made  a  demonstrative 
sc6nc  '  j"*^ 

Wh-?n  Blum,  the  pass3nger,  started  to  go 
on  board,  John  Anderson,  who  nuards  the 
dock  end  of  the  gangplank,  asked  nlm  to 
show  his  ticket.  Blum  thought  Anderson 
was  not  going  to  allow  him  to  go  aboard, 
and  so  did  his  -friends.  Then  the  trouble 
began.  Pushing  .-ind  yelling  the  crowd  sur- 
rounded Anderson,  expostulating  and  con- 
demning hln:  at"  the  same  time.  Suddenly 
Blum  struck  the  official  in  the  mouth  and 
darted  on  board.  Some  of  his  friends  tried 
to  follow,  and  then  the  trouble  b6gan  in 
earnest. 

The  polise  rushed  to  the  assistance  of 
the  gangplank  guard.  The  crowd  forgot 
their  friends  and  surged  toward  the  centre 
of  the  trouble,  adding  to  the  confusion. 
The  police  tried  to  drive  the  friends  of  the 
travelers  away,  but  they  hung  about  them, 
tore  their  clothes,  and  called  them  names, 
while  others  encouraged  those  fighting  the 
police. 

"  You  ain't  done  nothing.  Don't  you  let 
them  take  you.  Charley  Kramer'll  get 
you  out,"  yelled  one.  - 

"  Its  a  shamefulness.  We'll  tell  Martin 
Engel,"  screiimed  a  dozen  others  in  chorus. 

Finally  the  police,  reinforced  by  every 
officer  on  the  pier,  scattered  the  crowd  and 
carried  off  Henry  HarHs  of  176  Chrystie 
Street  and  Joseph  and  John  Blum  of  Eld- 
ridge Street  to  Jefferson  Market  ■  Police 
Court-  for  a  hearing  on  a  charge  of  dis- 
orderly -conduct. 

They  were  followed  by  a  crowd  who 
threatened  the  police  with  political  punish- 
ment for  Interfering  with  friends  of 
"  Charley  Kramer." 

In  Jefferson  Market  Court  Magistrate 
Olmsted  fined  the  prisoners  $3'  each  on  the 
complaint  of  Anderson,  who  was  struck  by 
Blum.  This  complaint  was  substantiated 
by  PoliSemen  Daniel  Sullivan,  stationed  at 
the  ipier,  and  Michael  Quinn  and  Birck  of 
the  Steamboat  Squad.  In  passing  Judgment 
Magistrate  Olmsted  took  occasion  to  say: 

"  Hereafter,  when  an  eastsider  leaves  the 
country,  instead  of  taking  his  demonstra- 
tive friends  to  the  pier,  let  him  hire  a  hall 
for  a  farewell  receptidn."

WANT  ASSESSMENTS  REDUCED. 

Metropolitan  and  Twenty-third  Street 
Railways  Say  Those  for  1898  and 
j        1900  Are  Too  High. 

Charles  A.  Jackson  was  appointed  as  ref- 
eree by  .Justice  Truax  in  the  Supreme  Court 
Testerday  to  pass  upon^^he  claims  of  the 
Metropolitan  Street  Railway  Company  and 
the  Twenty-third  Street  Railway  Company 
to  be  absolved  from  personal  taxes  for  the 
year  1898,  and  appointed  Gilbert  M.  Spelr 

as  referee  in  similar  claims  for  the  year 
1000. 

The  Metropolitan  Company  claims  that  its' 
personal  assessment  for  1898  of  $10,725,200, 
to  which  it  was  reduced  by  the  Tax  Com- 
missioners, Is  unjust,  and  that  the  assess- 
ment of  $10,621,789,  for  1000,  was  also  un- 
fair. Its  liabilities  over  assets  for  1{)00  were 
$34,000,000,  while  the  dividends  paid  for  the 
preceding  year  were  only  $2,970,000.  Its 
liabilities  over  taxable  personalty  in  1808 
were  stiU  higher. 

The  Twenty-third  Street  Railway  Com- 
pany says  Us  taxable  personalty  in  1898 
^wa»<placed  at  $2.)8,000,  its  capital  being 
$600,006^  and  its  Indebtedness  $400,000.  The 
referees  were  appointed  on  the  consent  of 
Corporation  Counsel  John  Whalen,  on  the 
ground  that  the  vast  amount  of  testimony' 
to  be  taken  would  involve  a  long  delay  it

NEW  GERMAN  LINER. 


Hamburg-American's  New  Steamship  to 
be  Larger  than  the  Deutschland. 

Emil  L.  Bbas,  Genial  Manager  in  Amer- 
ica of  the  Hamburg-American  Line,  con- 
firmed yesterday  the  London  cablegrram  to 
the  effect  that  that  line  had  contracted 
with  Harland  &  'Wolff  for  the  construction 
of  a  21,000-ton  liner.  The  new  ship'  he  said, 
while  larger,  will  not  be  so  fast  as  the 
Deutschland.  She  will  be  placed  in  the 
New  York  service,  and  will  be  completed 
in  about  two  years. 

The  additional  information  contained  in 
the  cable  which  said  that  Mr.  Ballln  of  the 
line  had  entered  into  arrangements  with  a 
number  of  British  sbinping  companies  with 
regard  to  the  China  trade,  which  possibly 
aimed  at  the  shutting  out  of  Am6rfcitf,  Mr. 
Boas  empliatlcally  denied. 

RIOT  IN  WEST  NEW  YORK. 


Deposition  of  a  School  Principal  Causes 
Trouble. 

There  was  a  small-sized  riot  at  the 
meeting  of  the  West  New  York ,  Board  of 
Educatlo;!  on  Tuesday  night.  Chairman 
Becker  and  Trustees  Everly,  Fachner,  Dor- 
becker,  and  Clerk  Maguire,  were  mobbed 
by  friends  of  former  Pxihcipal  Green  of 
No.  2  School,  whom  they  deposed.  Fists 
were  shaken  In  the  faces  of  the  Trustees, 
and  they , were  threatened  in  many  ways. 

Trustee  Everly,  Chairman  of  the  School 
Government  Committee,  iwas  the  principal- 
object  of  attack.  The  crowd  pursued  him  to 
the  door  of  the  meeting  room,  heaping  all 
manner  of  abuse  upon  him.  Pandemonium 
reigned  at  the  meeting.  Shouts,  curses,  and 
epithets  filled  the  air.  Mr.  Green  Jumped 
on  one  desk  and  then  another,  and  at- 
tempted to  speak.  The  crowd  forced  the 
Trustees  into  a  corner  near  the  Chair- 
man's desk.  The  Trustees,  after  attempting 
to  make  answers,  which  were  unheard  In 
the  din,  fled  from  the  meeting.

The  Board  of  Hea^h  Issues  a 
Warning  to  Physicians. 


A  Special  Fight  Against  Mosquitoes  to 
be  Made  by  Dr.  Doty  at 
Concord,  S.  I. 


The  Board  pf  Health  yesterday  Issued  a 
statement '•tq*  the  physicians  of  New  York, 
warning  them  to  advise  their  patients  to  be 
on  guard  against  the  malarial  mosquito. 
The  principal  paragraph  in  the  letter  is 
a$  follows: 

"  Malarial  fever  is  qui'te  prevalent  In  cer- 
tain boroughs  of  New  York  City.  It  is 
likely  to  extend  to  the  Boroughs  of  Man- 
hattan and  Brooklyn  in  view  of  the  exten- 
sive excavations  and  consequent  formation 
of  rain  pools  in  various  parts  of  these 
boroughs,  if  means  are  not  employed  for 
its  prevewtlon." 

President  John  B.  Sejxton  and  Commis- 
sioner John  B.  Cosby,  M.  D.,  and  William 
T.  Jenkins,  M.  D.,  participated  in  the  dis- 
cussion of  mosquitoes  and  malaria  a^  the 
Board  of  Health-  building  yesterday.  The 
question  was  considered  mainly  with  refer- 
ence' to  Central  Park  and  Staten  Islanfl, 
and  the  members  of  the  board  were  aided  in 
their  conclusions  by  the  studies  of  Sanitary 
Superintendent  Roberts,  Assistant  Sanitary 
Superintendent  Dillingham,  and  Hermann 
M.  Biggs,  M,  D.,  director 'of  the  bacteriolog- 
ical laboratories.  > 

As  a  result  of  the  conference  the  Commis- 
sioners wefe  unanimous  in  declaring  that 
no  danger  of  malaria  from  Central  P.irk 
was  to  be  found.  It  had  been  thoroughly 
inspected,  and  while  mosquitoes  Jiad  been 
found  there,  none  of  them  were'  of  the 
species  which  transmits  the-  polson.X  No 
case  of  malaria  had  been  traced  to  Central 
Park  origin,  and  the  Commissioners  had 
resolved  to  take  no  further  action  in  the 
matter. 

In  regard  to  Staten  Island,  President 
Sexton  said  that  Health  Officer  Dbty  would 
have  all  the  aid  the  Health  Department 
could  give  him  in  his  experiments  to  dis- 
cover if  the  malarial  fever  mosquito  could 
be  exterminated  by  scientific  means. 

The  board  then  approved  of  a  circular  in 
regard  to  mosquitoes  and  malaria  prepared 
by  Dr.  Biggs  and  ordered  its  distribution 
to  New  York  physicians.'  Parts  of  the  cir- 
cular follow: 

Recent  Investigations  have  shown  that  malarial 
fever  belongs  to  that  class  of  diseases  which  re- 
quire for  their  transmission  the  active  interven- 
tion of  a  definite  kind  of  mosquito,  I.  e., 
anopheles.  Observations  In  the  .  Intensely  ma- 
larial districts  In  Italy  and  Africa  have  shown 
that  even  newcomers  In  these  regions  who  pur-, 
posely  expose  themselves  by  liWng  In  the  most 
highly  malarious  areas,  -for  example,  (the  Roman 
Compagna,  do  not  develop  malarial  fever  If  they 
a«  carefully  protected  from  the  bites  of  mos^ 
quitoes,  and  further.  It  has  been  shown  that 
this  disease  may  be  produced  with  certainty  In 
any  locality  If  a  mosquito  of  the  genus  anopheles 
is  allowed  to  bite  a  person  suffering  from 
malarial  fever,  arid  then,  after  a  sufficient 
time,  is  allowed  to  bite  a  healthy  person. 

Certain  simple  t^recautions  suffice  to  protect 
persons  living  In  malarial  districts  from  Infec- 
tion. • 

First— Proper  screening  of  the  house  to  prevent 
the  entrance  of  tire  mosquitoes,  (after  carefHl 
search  for  and  destruction  of  all  those  alreadj- 
present  In  the  house.)  and  screening  of  the  bed 
at  night.  The  chief  danger  of  infection  is  at 
night.  Inasmuch  as  the  anopheles  bite  mostly  at 
this  time. 

Second— The  confinement  and  continuous 
screening  oC  persons  In  malarial  districts  who 
are  suffering  from  malarial  fever,  so  that  mos- 
ouitoes  may  not  bite  them  and  thus  become 
Ihfectfirfl. 

Third— The  administration  of  quinine  In  full 
doses  to  malarial  patients  to  destroy  the  malarial 
organisms  In  the  blood  and  persistence  in  the 
use  ■  of  the  remedy  even  for  a  few  weeks  after 
apoarent  recovery. 

Fourth— The  removal  of  the  breeding  places  of 
the  mosquitoes  through  drainage,  filling  up  of 
holes  and  surface  pool^,  and  emptying  of  tubs, 
palls.  &c..  which  contain  stagnant  water.  These 
mosquitoes  particularly  breed  in  surface  rain 
pools  and  surface  stagnant  water  where  there 
are  no  fish:  also,  exceptionally  in  palls,  tubs, 
barrels,  and  tanks  of  standing  water,  though 
they  seem  mostly  to  prefer  natural  accumula- 
tions.- 

Fifth— In^  pools  which  cannot  be  drained  gr 
filled,  the  destruction  of  the  mosquito  larvae  by 
the  uee  of  petroleum  thrown  upon  the  surface, 
by  the  Introduction  of  minnows  and  other  small 
fish  which  eat  the  lari'ae,  or  bj'  both  methods.. 

It  Is  the  desire  of  the  Department  of  Health 
to  obtain  Infbrmatlon  as  to  the  location  of  the 
cases  of  malarial  fever  so  that  the  people  may 
be  instructed  as  to  the  danger  of  infection  and 
the  methods  of  avoiding  It.  A  case  of  malarial 
infection  in  a  house,  whether  the  person  is 
actively  111  or  the  Infection  is  latent.  In  a  locality 
where  the  anopheles  mosquitoes  are  present,  is 
a  constant  source  of  da'nger  not  only  to  the  in- 
mates of  the  house.  hMt  to  the  Immediate  neigh- 
borhood. If  proper  precautions  are  not  taken. 

The  Board  of  Health  desires  the  co-operE^tlon 
of  all  physicians  in  its  efforts  to  disseminate 
Information  in  regai-rt  to  th«  causation  and  pre- 
vention of  malarial  fever,  and  in  Its  efforts  to 
restrict  the  prevalence  of  this  disease  In  New 
Tork  City.  '  ^. 

,"  T  do  not."  said  Dr.  Alvah  H.  Doty!^  the 
Health  Officer.  last  evening,  "expect  to 
exterminate  all  the  mosquitoes  on  Staten 
Island.  But  I  nm  going  to  make  some  ek- 
perlments  in  kllline  off  anopheles,  and  on 
the  result  much  will  depend.  .1  may  say 
that  T  have  no  appropriation  for  the  pur- 
pore,  but  have  been  promised  valuable  aid. 
There  has  been  much  mlsconcentlon  of  my 
Intentions  in  thl.<5  recard.  I  never  planned 
to  do  ojher  than  scientific  work  In  the 
matter  of  malarial  fever  and  mosquitoes 
In  conjunction  with  the  laboratory  work 
that  Is  always  going  on  at  the  Quarantine 
station. 

"I  have  been  tied  up  with  the  bubonic 
plague*  ship,  ^the  Hohenfels,  and  smalltKJx 
cases,  but  I  expect  within  three  or  four 
days-  to  take  hold  of  the  niagculito  prob- 
lem. Mv  nlan  is  to  select  one  of  the  most 
malarial  districts  and  experiment.  I  think 
T  have  found  It  In  Concord,  a  little  place 
hack  of  Clifton  and  near  Grasmere  Lake. 
The  plan  Is  favorable  for  the  production  of 
ahoplieles.  as  about  It  are  a  number  of 
undralned  pools.  The  lake  contains  fish, 
which  keep  the  larvae  of  the  mosquito 
down. 

"  Of  course,  we  shall  secure  water  from 
the  stagnant  pools  with  the  larvae  of  the 
malaria-transmitting  taosqulto.  President 
Sexton  has  proml-^ed  me  sanitary  police- 
men .and  Inspectors,  and  the  Standard  Oil 
Company  ihas  given  100  barrels  of  petrole- 
um. Oil  will  be  put  in  the  pools  of  water, 
the  police  ahd  Inspectors  will  get  statis- 
tics of  malaria,  enforce  sanitary  conditions 
and  regulations.  a:nd  get  rid  of  rubbish. 
The  place  will  be'  thoroughly  cleaned  up. 
The  Board  of  Health  will  he  asked  to  order 
drainage'  and  filling  in.  We  are  goln?  to 
try  to  shdw  what  scientific  work  will  do 
in  this  section." 


pieces  Just  such  as  he  used  to  make  being 
circulated,  and  since  then  they  have  had

When  the  woman  was  arrested  she  said

VEGETABLES  ARE  COSTLY. 

»   

Western  Drought  Has  Helpecf  Send  Up 
Prices  of.  Potatoes — Melons 
and  Fruits  High. 

■Vegetables  are  selling  In  the  city  for 
higher  prices  now  than  they  have  for  a 
long-  time,  the  rsitent  rise  having  been  es- 
I  eclally  noticeable  in  potatoes,  as  they  are 
1-sed.more  universally  and  in  larger  quan- 
tities. Less  than  a  month  ago  $3  per  bar- 
rel was  a  fair  price  for  the  best  variety  of 
rotatoes,  bht  now  the  same  quality  brings 
F4.30^  and  you  have  to  pay  $3  for  those  of  a 
very  inferior  grade. 

"There  are  several  causes  for  the  scar- 
city of  potatoes,"  said  4  Washington  Mar- 
ket dealer  yesterday.  "  In  the  early  part 
rf  the  season  the  supply  came  from  the 
Fouth  mostly.  The  crop  there  was  good, 
■nut  not  as  mych  of  it  was  shipped  north 
.  3  in  past  years,  the  droughts  and  other 
crop-dt!Stroylng  causes  in  the  West  having 
nade  the  demand  for , the  product  so  great 
out  there  that  people  beyond  the  Mlssiss- 
iopi  got  part  of  our  share  from  the  South. 

"  Later,  when  we  began  to  get  potatoes 
from  Long  Island,  Delaware,  Maryland, 
r  nd  New  Jersey,  we  found  that  the  pro- 
l  ucers  of  thOee  sections,  too.  were  sending 
ranch  of  their  crop  to  the  West,  and  they 
;.re  still  doing  so.  Besides,  the  potato 
crops  of  Long  Island  and  of  the  other  near- 
'ly  markets  are  not  so  plentiful,  this  year 
••-3  usual.  A  cold  Spring  was  'Tollowed  In 
riay  by  many  weeks  of  rain,  and  then  came 
:>  drought." 

"Other  vegetables  are  high  priced,  but  not 
nroportlonately  with  potatoes.  First  claS's 
•omatoes  now  bring  $2  a  peck,  or  about 
Ifteen  cents  a  quart.  The  price  vaNes  a 
little  from  day  to  day  and  wltt  different 
■  ealers.  Peas,  which  have  been  high  for 
ive  or  six  weeks,  are  put  down  at  S.'i  ceiits 
i  Half -peck— that  Is,  the  best  variety. 
Beans  are  from  15  to  HO  cents  a  quarts 
f,nd  they  also  have  been  high  for  more 
han  a  month.  Good  corn  is  selling  at  %'l 
a  hundred,  wholesale,  and  a  retail  buyer 
;an't  get  It  often  for  less  than  35  cents  a 
iozen,  -although  ears  of  inferior  cullbre 
nay  be  picked  up  around  the  markets  for 
\a  cents  a  dozen.  Under  normal  condl- 
-lons  first-class  corn  could  be  gotten  for 
J5  cents  a  dozen,  retail. 

Melons  are  still  up,  and  even  at  the  high 
jrlces  one  cannot  get  as  nice  ones  as  are 
^een  here  in  most  seasons.  Good  canta- 
oupes  sell  at  from  10  to  in  cents  each; 
aad  ones  at  5  cents.  The  restaurant  keep- 
3rs,  t6  whom  there  have  been  many  com- 
plaints of  late  about  the  inferior  quality  Of 
their  melons,  say  that  the  lowest  price 
at  which  they  can  possibly  serve  a  por- 
-lon  of  really  eatable  cantaloupe  is  15  cents. 

There  has  been  an  Idtfa  that  cheaper  fruit 
would  result  from  the  removal  of  Porto 
fllcan  duties,  but  importers  say  this  is 
:iot  to  be  the  case  for  one  season  at  least, 
ns  the  crops  of  the  Island  have  been  bad 
tt  late,  and  the  bulk  that  Is  shipped 
lere  is  not  sufficient  to  alter  the  fruit 
-jrices  regulated  by  growers  in  California. 

Next  year,  however,  oranges  and  pineap- 
ples will  probably  sell  much  lower  than

lanana  market  from  this  cause,  for  ba- 
nanas are  not  dutiable  anyway.  It  Is  an- 
ticipated that  grape  fruit,  limes,  and  lem-

'ilOAL:  PRICES  RISING. 

Wholesale  iDe^lers  Arrange  a  Regular 
Scale  of  Monthly  Increases. 

Prices  of  call,  both=  ■srtiolesale  and  retail, 
have  been  advancing  at  regular  intervals 
since  Spring,  and  they  will  go  higher  until 
Fall,  wltlk  eqtial  regularity.  The  upward 
changes  are  not,  as  some  people  have 
thought,  due  to  any  scarcity  of  the  product, 
or  to  strikes,  or  to  advanced  railroad  rates, 
but  to  a  pre-ordained  sched'ule  of  the  coal- 
mining companies,  by  '^hom  it  was  decided 
early  in  the  Spring  that  wholesale  prices' 
should,  gpc  u|^  AO)  :cents  a  ton  every  moijth. 
When  this  pfogramme  was  adopted  coal 

had  beeb'  .'reduced  ,-90  cents  on  the  ton  all 
round;'  and  it  'was  proposed  to  bring  it 
back  to  its  original  value  by  the  regular 
increase  of  10  oents  a  month. 

"  The  object  In  selling  coal  lower  In  the 
Spring,  and  then  letting  It  go  up  as  Fall 
approaches,"  said  a  prominent  dealer  yes- 
terday, "  is  to  make  the  copsumer  buy 
his  supply  early,  thus  to  avoid  at  least  a 
portion  of  the  rush  In  the  trade  t])at  al- 
ways comes  In  the  Autumn." 

Naturally,  retail  prices  have  to  change 
with  the  wholesale.  But  the  retail  dealers 
do  not  push  their  figures  up  as  often  as 
do  the  wholesalers,  realising,  as  one  of 
them  said  yesterday,  that  ."  individual  cus- 
tomers would  complain  more  at  such  fre- 
quent advances  of  10  ceirts  on  the  ton  than 
they  do  at  more  infrequent  ones  of  25 
cents."  go  the  retail  prices  go  up  every 
two  months  and  a  half,  advancing  25  cents 
on  the  ton  each  time. 

In  April  and  May  white  ash  stove  coal 
sold  for  S5.25  per  ton,  and  in  the  middle 
of  June  the  price  was  raised  to  $5.50.  There 
will  be  another  raise,  to  $5.T5,  on  Sept.  1. 
Egg  and  broken  coal  Is  25  cents  cheaper 
than  this,  and  red  ash  Is  50  cents  higher. 
All  the  prtces  advance  proportionately,  ac- 
cording to  the  fixed  programme!.  — 


WOMEN  C 


RFEITERS. 


Secret  Service  Men  Make  What  They 
Say  Is  an.  Important  Capture.  ^. 

Two  women  were  arrested  by  United 
States  Secret  Servica-of fleers  late  Tuesday 
night  In  a  flat  at  31'5  Bast  Thirty-fifth 
Street.  They  are  charged  with  having 
c(hinterfeited  many  quarters  and  half-dol- 
lars. Their  captpre  was  the  result'  of  a 
chase  of  several  months. 

One  of  the  women,  Mrs.  Alice  Dougherty, 
alias  BasEoli,  once  lived  with  "  Jimmy " 
Holden,  the  ■  noted  counterfeiter,  .who  Is 
now  in  Dannemora  frison  under  a  sen- 
tence, of  perjury.  The  other  woman  Is  Mrs. 
Mary .  O'Connor,  or  O'Connell,  whom  the 
detectives  do  not  claim  to  know  as  well  as 
they  do  Mrs.  Dougherty. 

Conjplalnts  about  the  count#fgit  coins 
first  came  from  Nqrth  Beach,  and  later  It 
was  learned  that  they  were  being  circulated 
all  through  Kings  and  Queens  Counties,  also 
that  a  few  were  found  In  this  borough. 
Detective  Flynn  of  the  Secret  Service  start- 
ed to  work  on  the  case,  and  became  satis- 
fied that  the  two  women  arrested  were  the 
culprits.  They  were  carefully  watched,  and 
finally  Detectives  Burke,  Gammon,  and 
Peeke  went  to  the  Thirty-fifth  Street  house, 
where  It  was  found,  after  the  arrests,  that 
Mrs.  O'Connor  rented  the  place  and  kept 
her  family  of  sons  and  daughters  there, 
ostensibly  letting  a  rear  room  to  Mrs. 
Dougherty. 

When  the  flat  was  searched  the  detectives 
found  nearly  200  of  the  counterfeit  coins- 
dimes,  quarters,  and  half-dollars.  The  lat- 
ter were  of  especially  good  make.  Borne  of 
the  pieces  Wert  unfinished,  hidden  In  a 
black  stocking.  The  coins  were  found  to  be 
made  of  ,a  mixture  of  antimony,  tin,  and 
lead. 

Bot^  prisoners' were  taken  to  Brooklyn 
and  arraigned  before  United  States  Com- 
missioner Morle.  who  held  Mrs.  Dougherty 
In  ball  of  $2,500  and  the  other  woman  In 
g,000.    They  I  will  be  examined  next  Mon- 

^eaklng  of  the  arrests'  yesterday,  the 
detectives  said  that  Mrs.  Dougherty  was 
one  of  the  most  notorious  counterfeiters 
with  whom  the  department  had  had  to  deal 
for  a  long  time.  The  officials  at  Washing- 
ton knew  well  Holden's  work  at  making 
false  coins,  and  when  he  was  put  Into 
prison  ttiey  thought  for  a  while  that  they 
would  have  no  more  trouble  with  his  par- 
ticular brand  of  money.   '   '  •

SEVENTH  NATIONAL  INQUIRY. 

President 'Delafield  of  the  National  Park 
Bank  and  Mr.  Sherer  Before 
thi.  Grand  Jury. 

'Taking  the  testimony  by^he  Federal 
Grand  Jury  In  regard  to  th^  affairs  of  the 
Seventh  National  Bank  was  continued  yes- 
terday in  the  Post  Office  Building,  the  first 
w^itness  of  the  day  being  President  Richard 
Delafield  of  the  National  Park  Bank.  On 
the  day  before  the  Seventh  National  Bank 
failed  the  National  Park  Bank  -  received 
from  it  a  check  for  $300,000  drawn  by  Mar- 
quahd  &  Co.,  and  Mr.  Delafield  asked  lt>r 
additional  security  and  wa^  accommbdated. 

Frank  H.  Poor,  junior  partner  j  In  the 
Marquand  firm,  succeeded  Mr.  DeteLfleld  as 
a  witness,  and  then  George  S.  Hlckok, 
cashier  of  the  National  Park  Bank,  was 
called  in  for  a  brief  period.  Manager 
Sherer  of  the  Clearing  Hous'e  was  also 
summoned  to  the  Grand  Jury  ■  chamber,  as 
was  another  witiiess  who  was  not  identified 
by  any  of  those  watching  the  proceedings 
In  the  ante-room. 

Gen.  ,Henry  L.  Burnett,  United  States 
District  Attorney,  and  -tils  assistants,  left 
I  he  Grand  Jury  rooin  at  12:35  P.\  M.,  re- 
fusing to  discu.ss  the  situation  in  any  way, 
but  it  was  uO  minutes  later  before  the  ses- 
sion ended.  Prom  the  fact  that  the  Grand- 
Jury  remained  so  long  alone,  it  is  Inferred 
that  they  have  heard  all  the  evidence  at 
hand.  Assistant  United  States  District  At- 
torney BtUdwin  said  later  that  the  Grand 
Jury  ■sflU  not  convene  to-day.

PERCT-GMI RICIHG  '  ' 
Lif  TO  BE  TESTED 

Constitutionality  Questioned  by 
indicted,  foolroom''  Operator. 


Court  of  General  Sessions  to  be  Asked 
to  Transfer  Case  of  Charles  B:nnett 
to  the  United  States  Cou^t 

Another  steip  In  the  legal  fight  between 
the  pool-room  contingent  and  the  race- 
track book-makers  will  be  taken  this  morn- 
ing before  J4^ge  Newburger  of  the  Court 
of  General  Sessions,  w(ien  an  effort  will  be 
made  by  the'  pool-room  men  to  have  the 
Supreme  Court  of  the  United  States  pass 
upon  the  constitutionality  of  the  Percy- 
Gray  racing  law. 

The  cajie  that  will  stand  as  representa- 
tive of  the  prlncliile  to  be  tested  Is  that  of 
the  People  vs.  Charles  Bennett,  said  to  be 
a  former  employe  in  a  pool-room  run  by 
"  The  "  ^llen.  Bennett  was  indicted  on 
April  16.  on  a  charge  -of  having  violated 
Sections  343  and  351  of  the  Penal  Code  of 
the  State  of  New  York.  The  two.  sections, 
among  other  things,  make  criminal  'the 
operating  of  a  pool-room.  I 

On  May  2  the  petitioner  in  thi;'  action, 
who  will  be  represented  before  Judge  New- 
burger  by  John  R.  Dos  Passes,  temurred- 
to^  the  indictment  on  the  ground  .hat  the 

facts  therein  contained  did  not  constitute 
a  crime. 

The  petitioner  also  avers  that  tliere  are 
four  separate  and  distinct  statutes  relating 
to  the  subject  of  betting  and  wagering, 
and  that  these  statutes  are  repetitions,  conr 
fllcting,  and  Inconsistent,  and  that  they 
provide  unequal  and  different  punishments 
■for  the  same  offpnse.  Thisi  the  petition 
says,  gives-  rise  to  class  legislation,  giving 
immunity  to  persons  who  frequent  and 
commit'  the  acts  In  question  on  a.  race- 
track, while  Esther  persons  guilty  of  the. 
same  offense  in  a  pool-room  make  them- 
selves liable. 

The  first  legal  steps  in  the  direction  of 
transfenHng  the  case  were  taken  yesterday 
morning  by  Benjamin  Stelnhardt  of  Howe  & 
Hummel's  office,  when  he  served  upon  Dis- 
trict Attorney  Fhllbin "  formal  notice  that 
to-day  he  would  ask  the  Court  -of  General 
Sessions'  to  transfer  the  case,  as  already 
stated.  Mr.  Stelnhardt  said  that  Bennett 
was  entitled  as  a  matter 'of  right  to  have 
the  case  tried  before  the  United  States 
Court,  and  that  the  Judges  of  the  General 
Sessions  could  not  legally  refuse  to  grant 
the  application  tor  the  transfer. 

In  the  petition  Mr.  Bennett  says  that  he 
is  denied  the  right  in  the  Courts  -of  the 
Stale  of  New  York  which  are  secured  to 
him  by  the  Constitution  of  the  United 
States.  'I 

The  petition  Is  a  lengthy  one,  and  states 
in  detail  the  ^se.  as  explained  here,  llji 
touching  on  thVwork  of  the  Committee  Qf 
Fifteen  the  petition  says: 

Y^r  petitioner  further  shows,  as  an  9vldence 
of  public  sentiment  In  New  York,  that  during  the 
Winter  and  Spring  of  liKIl  a  voluntary  committee 
of  fifteen  persons, .  unsworn  and  self-appointed, 
but  consisting  of  citizens  of  New  York,  of  the 
highest  respectability  and  character. .  and  actu- 
ated by  the  best  of  motives,  undertook  and 
began  a  crusade  against  vice  in  the  City  of  New 
York  and  among  other  things  made  a  deter- 
mined and  bona-flde  attempt  to  exterminate  all 
kinds  of  gambling  In  the '  City  and  County  of 
New  York,  with  the  result  that  It  was,  declared 
at  one  time  that  no  gapibling  of  any  description 
.existed  In  said  city,  but  that  during  the  period 
In'  which  this  commutee  was  In  existence  and 
operating,  and  -at  the,  present  time  (the  said 
committee  not  having  been  suspended  or  become 
f  unctiB  officio)  gambling  of  the  most  flagrant 
and  open  character  was  and  is  conducted  on  the 
race  tracks  and  bets  and  wagers  to  an  unlimited 
amount  were  and  &re  made  thereon  without 
molestation  from  the^sald  Committee  of  Fifteen 
or  by  persons  charged  with  the  administration 
of  criminal  law,  ot  any.  attempt  being  made  to 
interfere  with  said  acts,  when  perpetrated  In  the 
sacred  precincts  of  these  alleged  legally  consti- 
tuted racing  associations.  '  . 

Nevertheless,  the  arrest  of  the  defendant  for 
the  axAE  with  which  be  is  charged  In  the  present 
Indictment  was  Incited  and  Instigated,  directly 
or  Indirectly,  by  the  said'  last-named  committee. 
That  your  petitioner  is  Informed  and  verily  be- 
lieves If  gambling  of  all  kinds  is  stopped  on  the 
race  tracks  no  pool  selling  on  races  can  be  car- 
ried on  outside  thereof,  because  pool  selling  Iq 
hased  upon  the  racing  on  the  courses,  and  that 
If  the  source  Is  stopped  the  supply  will  cease. 


A.  POPKIN  &  CO.'S  TROUBLES. 

Creditors  Attempt  to  Discover  What

had  become  of  th^  assets  of  the  concerh.  It 
was  stated  that  the  factory  had  been  closed 
for  several  days,  and  efforts  to  find  Abra- 
ham Popkin,  the  manager  of  the  business, 
either  at  the  factory  or  at  his,  residence, 
were  fruitless. 

One  of  the  creditors  called  at  Mr.  Pop- 
kin's  residence  on  July  27  and  again  on 
Tuesday,  and  was  infornjed  that  he  was 
out  of  the  city,  and  It  was  not  known  when 
he  would  return.     '  . 

The  creditor  also  called  at  the  ^ouse  of 
Mr.  Popkln's  bookkeeper,  and  It  was  said 
that  he  was  out  of  town. 

The  concern  usually  carried  a  stock  rtf . 
about  $35,000,  but  it.  is  said  that  all  of  it 
has  been  removed  except  a  few  odds  and 
ends.  Deputy  Sheriff  Roberts  received  an 
attachment  against  the  concern  yesterday-

to  the  concern  by  Otto  and  Louis  Schrelber, 
doing  business  as  Forstmann  &  (So.,  be- 
tween AprIW15  and  June  26.  The"  attach- 
ment was  (Atained  on  the  ground  that  the 
corporation  Thad  disposed  of  its  property  to

NE1|  YORK  CITY  HAS 

46,000  EMPLOYES 

Enormous  Increase  in  Salaries 
During  the  Past  Six  Months. 


Interesting  Statistics  Published  in  The 
City  Record  —  The  Law  Not 
Obeyed  in  Some  Cases.' 


The  list  of  cl|gr  employes  during  the'  first 
six  months  of  190J  was  printed  in  The  City 
Record  yesterday.  Four  hundred  and  nine 
pages  are  taken  up  .with  the  closely  printed 
Hats.  The  total  number  of  municipal  em- 
ployes is  about  46,000;  and  of  these  nearly 
one-half  are  in  the  Police,  Fire,  and  Edu- 
cation Departments.  The  list  of  teachers 
and  other  employes  of  the  schools  takes  up 
131  paires  of  the  list.* 

The  total  of  Increase  in  salaries  during 
the  first  six  months  of  1001  was  shown  by 
the  official  record  to  be  $501,784.  "Many  of 
the  Increases  were  mandatory  and '  were 
'made  to  comply  with  laws  passed  by  the 
Lecrlslature.  The  largest  increase  is  in  the 
Board  of  Kducation,  which  required  $21G,- 
802  to  pay  the  increase  in  salaries  made 
necessary  by  State  laws.  The  Police  and 
Fire  Department  pay  rolls  had  to  be  in- 
creased $165,000  for  the  same  reason. 

This  left  the  sum  of  $120,000,  which  was 
added  to  salaries  of  Tammany  officehold- 
ers by  th6  acts  of  the  heads  of  depart- 
ments or  of  the  Board  of  Estimate.  The

From  the  official  record^  it  is  impossible 
to  show  every  Increase  made,  because  the 
reports  of  the  heads  of  departments  in 
many  instances  show  that  the  salaries  of 
certain  officials  have  been  "  fixed  "  at  cer- 
tain figures  without  any  memoranda  as  to 
whether  they  are  new  appointees  or 
!^ whether  they  have  been  advanced  in  grade 
and  pay. 

Corporation  Counsel  Whalen  has  increased 
the  expenses  of  his  office  JT.llBO.  Many, 
heads  of  departments  violate  the  provisions 
of  the^  Fallows  law  by  grouping  laborers 
and  other  employes  without  giving  their 
names,  addresses,  length  of  service,  and 
rate 'of  pay,  as  required  by  law. 


HACK  DRIVER  MAY  DIE. 


Fought  with  a  Business  Rival  and  His 
SIcull  Was  Fractured. 

William  Kronke  of  61  Third  Street,  Ho- 
boken, Is  lying  In  a  critical  condition  at  St. 
Mary's  Hospital^  and  It  was  said'  last  night 
that  his  death  was  only  .a  matter  of  a  few 
hours.  William  Kleinschmidt  of  230  Court 
Street  is  locked  up  without  bail  to  await 
thei  result.  The  two  men  are  hack  drive;-.?. 
They  quarreled  at  the  Bremen  plef  yester- 
day, because,  as  Kleinschmidt  allegeci, 
Kronke  drove  in  ahead  of  him  and' secured 
his  place  in  the  line. 

Kleinschmidt,  who  carried  an  umbrella, 
struck  Kronke  on  the  head.  The  ferrule, 
which  was  pointed,  severed  an  artery  and 
the  force  of  the  blow  caused  Kronke  to 
fall.  His  head 'struck  on  a  stone  and  his 
skull  was  fractured."  Kleinschmidt  alleges 
that*  Kronke  struck  him  three  times  be- 
fore he  used  the  umbrella.  Kronke,  when 
taken  to  the  hospital,  admitted  that  this 
was  true. 

LEGAL  NOTES, 


Claims  Against  a  Dead  Man's  Estate.— 
Peter  B.'  Dougall  recovered  a  Judgrment  in 
the  Montgomery  County  Supreme  Court 
against  Agnes  M.  Dougall,  as  administra- 
trix of  John  H.  "Van  'Vechten,  for  moneys 
loaned  by  him  to  het  Intestate  op  July  1, 
1895.  On  the  trial  a  witness  nayAed  Camp- 
bell testified  that  he  saw  the  plaintiff  de- 
liver the  money  to  the  deceased,  ahd  heard 
the  latter  isay,  "  I  don't  know  whether.  I 
'Will  have  to  use  this  money  or  not.  If  I 
don't  have  to  use  it  I  will  return  It  in  a 
few  days,  and  if  I  do  use  it  I  will  give  you 
something  to  show  that  I  borrowed  it  of 
you."  The  sum  mentioned,  said  the  wit- 
ness, was  $900,  as  claimed  by  the  plaintiff. 
Dougall  was  then  allowed  to  say.  that  he 
went  to  a  cemetery,  where  the  money  was 
claimed  to  hiive  been  loaned,  with  $900  in 
his  pocket,  and  came  away  without'  any 
money,  except  a  little  change.    ,  . 

The  Judgment  is  reversed  by  the  Third 
Appellate  Division  because  of  the  admis- 
sion of  Dougall' s  testimony,  sfnd  the  court 
says  that  the  error  was  not  cured  by  the 
deelaratlon  of  the  referee,  in  his  opinion, 
that  he  did  not  consider  such  evidence  In 
reaching  his  conclusion.  The  deceased  was 
a  well-to-do  farmer,  and  Dougall,  the 
plaintiff,  a  laboring  man.;  In  discussing 
the  matter.  Justice  Smith,  for  the  court, 

"^rio  satisfactory  explanation  was  given 
how  he  could  have  accumulated  this  amount 
as  a  farm  laborer.  Not  only  does  he  claim 
to  have  accumulated  this  $000  and  $430,  but 
he  was  allowed  to  swear  In  the  case  that  he 
had  also  loaned  Alfred  Dougall  $600  more. 
This  money  in  suit  is  claimed  to  have  been 
loaned  at  a  cemetery,  and  from  the  time 
that  It  was  loaned  to  the  death  of  the  de- 
ceased, in  December,  1897,  not  one  cent  of 
Interest  is  claimed  to  have  been  paid  or 
shown  to  have  been  demanded  from  the 
deceased.  If  the  testimony  of  Campbell  is 
true,  the  promise  of  the  deceased  wai  that 
if  he  Icept  the  money  be  would  give  to  the 
plaintiff  something  to  show  (Or  it.

Two  witnesses — Cor  ver  and  Fisher— swore

.to  collect,  if  possible,

that  he  had  no  note  ■

that  he  had  looked  In

ITS  that  '  the  last  time,  : 
or  the  tifhe  before  t  .  e  last  one,  he  said  that 
he  was  not  quite  si  positive  where  the  ona 
loan  was  made;  tha   possibly  It  might  have  : 
been  at  Patterson'  lie;  he  was  not  quits  '  .

with  reference  to  e  y  person  being  present  -. 
on  the  occasion  ot  i  Jther  loan?  A.— He  said 
no  one  was  by  but  limself  and  'Van  'Veeh-  [

mostly  deijied  by    he  plaintiff,  and  wit- 
nesses were  sworn  -ly  the  plaintiff  to  sus- 
tain the  character  I  '  the  witness  Campbell. 

"Such. is  in  subst  nee  the  testimony  upon 
which  this  judgme  t  rests.  This  court  I9  J 
fully  committed  to  he  doctrine  that  claims 
against  the  estate  r  a  dead  man  cannot  be  • 
sustained  upon  doi  itful  proof.  'We  think 
that  this  evidence  s  bv  far  too  uncertain

In  the  evidence." 


It  'Was  Not  F  sgert.— John  Drayton 
and  Arthur  A.  B  wen  were  indicted  in 
Monroe  County,  N  .Y.,  for  forgery  In  the 
second  degree  in  cc  nectlon  with  an  adver- 
tising contract.  It  jelng  alleged  that  .Jhe 
Instrunjent  purport,  i  to  create  a  pecuniary 
demand  and  obligp  ion  as  defiijed  by  the 
Penal  Code.  The^  a  ieged  contract  was  ad- 
dressed "  To  the  •  ublishers,"  ahd  stattHl  • 
that  they  were  " :  ithorizad  to  Insert  our 
advertisement  for  ie;;Financlal  and  Trade 
Quide  for  1897-9S.  Edition  to  occupy  the 
space  of  one-fourth  lage  advertis^ent  and 
three  headings— for  wJiich  we  agree  to  pay 
the  sum  of  fif  sen  dollars."  This -was 

signed  "  Co-operai  ve  Eaundry  Co.,  by 
Wliojn  signed,  McC  rthy. 

The  contract  f  urt  er  provided'  that  "  the 
publisher  will  not  I bound  by  any  agree- 
ment not  stipulate'  therein."  A  demurrer 
was  sustained  by  the 
•t,'  but  the  Fourth  Ap- 
;ered  a  reversal.  The 
Court  of  Appeals  h  5  now  reversed  the  In- 
termediate court  r  id  upheld ,  the  Couiity 
Court.  Judge  O'Br  'n,  giving  the  opihien, 
says: 

"  It  will  be  seen  hat  this  instrument,  is 
an  order  by  a  coi  poration  addressed  to 
some  one  called  pu ;  ilishers,  contalnlnjr  an

dictihent  Is  silent  i  1th  respect  to  the  ex-

enterprise  as  The  Financial  and  Trade 
Guide,  and  equally  silent  with  respect  to 
the  existence  or  idc  tlty  of  the  publishers. 
Whether  such  a  b  ak  or  advertising  me- 
dium is  or  ever  wa  published,  or  had  any 
existence  as  a  busi  ess  project,  cannot,  be 
ascertained,  from  f  3  Indlctmenf  No  fact

whether  the  paper  m  Its  face  creates  or

ST^TEIMENTS  OF  TWO  JURORS

'  nounces  the  Police,  Declaring  that 
They  Protect  Vice. ' 


J*' 


George  Bissert.  special  detective,  under 
Capt.  Thomas  J.  Diamond,  in  the  Fifteenth 
Police  Precinct,  was  convicted  late  yester- 
day afternoon  before  Recorder  Goff  in 
General  Sessions,  of  accepting  a  bribe  of 
$500  from  Lena."  Schmitt,  a  disorderly  house 
Jteeper  of  27  Stuyvesant  Street. 

The  Jury  retired  at  4:48  o'clock.  They 
returned  at  .6:53  o'clock.  Bissert  faced  the 
twelve  meii  with  an  air  of  unconcern. 

"  Gentlemen  of  the<Jiiry,  have  you  agreed 
upon  a  verdict?  "  asked  Clerk  Spinney. 

Foreman  Poster,  who  during  the  day  had 
suffered  much  from  neuralgic  pains,  nodded 
his  head  affirmatively, 

"  What  is'  your  'verdict,  gentlemen?  ' 

Foreman  -  Foster's  reply  was  Inaudible. 
Bissert  strained  his  ears  to  catch  the  words 
■  Capt.  Diamond  leaned  forward  in  his  chair. 
The  clerk,  repeated  his  question. 

"  Guilty,"  said  the  foreman. 

Ijiwyer  Unger  for  the 'defense  arose  and 
•aid:' 

"-\  ask  to  have  the  jury  -polled,  your 
Honor." 

After  this  had  been  done,  Mr.  Unger 
made  a  motion  to  set  aside  the  verdict  as 
|Wntrary  to  the  evidence.  This  was  denied 
by  the  Recorder,  and  Bissert  was  aent  to 
tlte  Tombs  until  next  ■\yednesday,  when 
■entence  will  be  pronounced.  The  maxi- 
mum penalty  Is  ten  years'  imprisonment 
a4|d  a  fine  of  $5,000,  or  both.  Assistant 
District  Attorheys  Osborne,  and  Gans  re^ 
fused  tb  comment  upo»  the  verdict. 

Juror  Alfred  H.  Caffee  met  Capt,  Dla^ 
moHd  as  he  was  leaving  the  courtroom. 
Mr.  Caffee  formerly  lived  In  the  Captain's 
precinct.    He  said: 

"  I  never  saw  you  'before.  Captain,  al- 
though I  lived  in  your  precinct  In  St.  Mark's 
Place  two  or  three  years  ago." 

••  Well,  you  evidently  dldg't  think  rhuch 
'Of  me  or  my  speech  to  the  Jury,"  said  the 
Captain.  "  Judging  from  your  vote  you 
didn't  think  much  of  my  veracity/' 

"  I  voted  from  the  first  acoordlng  to  my 
Gqnvictlo&s,  and  only  one  way,"  replied  Mr. 
Caffee. 

"  Have  you  noticed  the  great  Improve- 
'ment  In  St.  Mark's  Place,"  continued  the 
Captain.  "  How  was  It  when  you  were 
tiere?" 

"  Pretty  tough',"  was  tK^  reply. 

"  Well,  It's  much  Improved  since  I  took 
charge  of  the  precinct.  This  Is  chiefly 
owing  to  the  efforts  of  the  man  you  have 
just  eonvlcted." 

"BlaBert's  own  testimony,  not  the  Cap- 
tain's, was  what  fixed  him,"  replied  the 
Juror. 

Juror  Thoma,s  C.  Stratton  said  that  it  had 
required  the  greatest  courage  to  arrive  at 
the  verdict  of  guilty. 

"  It  was -unanimous,"  said  he,  "although 
there  was  a  member  of  the  Tammany  Hall 
•  Committee  on  the  jury.  '  My  people  will 
probably  look  to  me  for  acquittal,'  said  this 
man,  ■  but  I  think  the  verdict  of  guilty 
just,  and  will  so  vote.'  There  were  only 
three  ballots  taken,  although  there  were 
some  blank  votes  -cast  at  first.  The  only 
Question  was  about  the  charge  of  the  Re- 
corder as  to  the  credibility  we  ^should  at- 
tach to  the  testimony  of  dlsordm-lyiwomen. 

Assistant  District  Attorney  KJsliorne  in 
summing,  sharply  arraigned  Capt^T)lamond 
and  Bissert.  He^as  Interrupted  half  a

who  declared  that  he  was  distorting  the 
evidence.,'  The  Recorder  told  them  that 
their  Interruptions  were  Improper. 

Mr.  Osborne  told  the  Jury  that  they  were 
dealing  with  the  case  of  a  special  officer 
backed  by  his  Captain  and  every  officer  In 
the  precinct.    Bissert,  he  said,  had  been

iiaa  been  one  before  him,  and  he  was  doubt- 
leas  familiar  with  all  of  the  machinery  of 
police  affairs. 

♦V,"  What's  the  use,"  he  said,  "  of  teaching 
the  school  children  that  •  Honesty  is  the

■'This  caseMs  not  brought  on  my  part  to

"  Ton  might  as  well  tell  policemen  and

_Charging  the  Jurydthe  Recorder  said  that 
Bissert  could  not  be  convicted  upon  the 
uncorroborated  testimony  of  Lena  Schmitt. 
It  bad  been  corroborated,  he  said,  by  Rosle 
Oriwnberg,  -and  her  testimony,  the,  He-

POLICEMAN'S  FATAL  FALL 



Yunge's  Death  Followed  by  Rumors  that 
He  Was  Assaulted  Because  He  Se- 
cured Anti-^iscert  Witness. 

P«ter  W.  Tunge,  a  patrolman  attached  to 
the  Delancey  Street  Station,  early  last 
evening  was  removed  to  Bellevue  Hospital 
suffering  from  a  fracture  of  the  skull,  the 
result  of  a  fall,  it  was  at  first  reported,  at 
Grand  anS  Cannon  Strfeets.  He  died  soon 
after  midnight. 

It  was  sa!d  about  Bellevue  Hospital  that 
Yunge  was  probably  a^aulted.  It  was  intl 
mated  that  he  had  secured  the  attendance 
at  the  trial  of  Precinct  Detective  Bissert  of 
a  witness  who  corroborated -the  evidence  of 
an  important  witness  for  the  proseicution, 
without  whose  evidence  Detective  Bissert 
could  not  have  been  convicted.  The  jvit- 
ness  whose  testimony  is  said  to  hane  been 
corroborated  was,  it  is  asserted,  a  woipan 
of  bad  charactefr — 

The  story  given  out  by  the  police  ^irt 
that  Yunge  had  been  seized  with  an  epilep- 
tic fit  while  walking  with  his  wife  in  Grand 
Street  and  had  fallen,  striking  his  head  on 
the  pavement,  thus  receiving  the  fatal  In 
Jury.  - 

Mrs.  Yunge  was  seen  at  her  home  early 
this  morning  and  corroborated  this  state- 
ment: She  said  she  was  walking  with  her 
husband  when  he  was  seized  with  an  epi- 
leptic fit.  A  policeman  from  the  Dfeiancey 
Street  Station  summoned  an  ambulance  and 
Yunge  wa^  taken  to  Bellevue  Hospital.  iThe 
woman  had  not  been  notified  of  her  hus- 
band's death. 


IRRIGATION  Ol^  THE  SOUDAN. 

Sir  William- Garston's  Plan— Lord.  Cro'm-. 
er  Thinks  a  Khartoum-Ried  Sea 
Railway  More  Necessary. 

LONDON.  Aug.  2.— Lord  Cromer,' British 
Diplomatic  Agent  In  Egypt,  in  the  course 
of  a  minute  attached  to  a  report  of  Sir 
William'  E.  Garstln,  (Under  Secretary  of 
Stat,e  for  Public  Works  In  Egypt,)  dealing 
with  Irrigation  projects  along  the  Upper 
Nile,  supports  a  suggestion  that  a  railway 
from  Khartoum  to  the  Red  Sea  is  more 
necessary  than  irrigation  works. 

Sir  William  concludes,  as  a  result  of  the 
prolonged  study  he  has  given  to  the  irriga- 
tion problem,  that  the  vast  {)lalna  of  the 
Soudan,  stretching  from  the  right  iba:nk  of 
the  Nile  toward  the  Atbara  and  from  the 
left  bank  toward  the  White  Nile,  can  be 
made,  fertile  by  utilizing  the  waters  of 
Lake  Tsana,  which  He  within  the  dominions 
of  Emperor  Menelelc,  and  can  be  used  only 
with  his  consent. 

No  estimate  is  made  of.  the  coat  of  the 
works  that  would  be  necessary. 


HIS  PRAYERS  WERE  EFFECTIVE. 

Negro  Preacher  Tells  How  They  Made 
a  Woman  Well  and  Saved  His 
Paying  a  Fine. 

A  colored  evangelist  cause^  some  amuse- 
ment yesterday  in  the  Harlem  Court.  He 
was  there  as  a  witness  for' his  'Wife,  who 
was  in  court  on  complaint  of  one  Maria 
Williams,  a  colored  woman,  who  charged 
that  Mary  Bell,  the  wife,  also  colored,  who 
lives  at  1,901J  Park  Avenue,  had  thrown  her' 
out  of  the  house  when  she  ■went  for  h«r 
clothes^  She.'wanted,  to  get  those  clothes. 
When  the  Williams  'woman  had  told  her 
story  WlUlam  Bell,  the  husband-  of  Mrs. 
Bell,  who  Is  a  steamfltter  by  trade  and  an 
evangelist  in  odd  moments  and  by  prefer- 
ence, told  the-  other  side  of  the  story.  ,BeIl 
said  that  some  time  ago  the  woman^tiame 
to  hlin  sick',  weak,  and  unable  to  work, 
and  he  took  her  In.  He  said: 

'  I  am  a  man  of  the  Lord,  and  a  deacob 
of  Christ,  and  I  run  a  little  mission  in  Park 
Avenue.  This  woman  Williams  came  to 
me  sick  and  unable  to  work,  and  I  took 
her  in.  I  prayed  to  the  Lord  that  she  get 
well  and  obtain  work,v.aiid  she  did.  Then 
when  she  had  worked  a  while  shfe  came  to 
me  and  offered  me  $1,  but  I  told  her  to  keep 
the  dollar  till  she  could  better  afford  to 
pay.  ^ 
"  'When  she  used  to  live  with  us  she  used 
to  dream  at  night  that  evil  spirits  were 
throwing  book's  and  other  sthlngs  ,  at  her 
so  that  she  could  not  sleep.  I  prayed  to  the 
Lord  that  she  should  have  a  good  nighrs 
rest,  and  .she  had  the  best  night's  rest  she 
had  had  for  a  long  tinie.  Then  she  came 
arouhd  and  had  a  row/with  my  'V^ife,  and 
I  put  her  out  of  the  hfiise." 

After  Bell  had  finished.  Magistrate  Crane 
turned  to  the  Williams  woman  and  berated 
her  as  an  ungrateful  woman,  and  told 
her  to  get  out  of  court.  On  hearing  this 
Preacher  Bell  said:  = 

■  There,  Miss  Williams,  I  came  to  the 
co't  with  $17  Ih  my  pocket  to  pay  your 
fine,  for  I  have  a  summons  against  you,  but 
I  prayed  to  tbe  XiOrd  that  I  -sirouidn't  have 
to  pay  the  fine,  and  I  didn't."

-500  while  citizens  of  Carroll  County,  who 
marched  to  the  Jail  in  order,  demanded  the 
keys  from  Jailer  Duke,  proceeded  to  the 
cells  of  the  unfortunate  negroes,  bound 
them  by  the  necks  and  hands,  and  <jarried 
them  to  the  corporate  limits  of  the  tbwn, 
where. they  hangod  them  to  a  tree  by  the 
road  and  riddled  their  bodies  with  bullets. 

Ida  McCray  confessed  to  I  the  knowledge 
of  the  murder,  and  stated  that  her  mother, 
Betsie,  and  brother,  Belf'oild,  helped  com- 
mit the  murder.  She  further  Implicated 
three  other  negroes,  who  will  probably  meet 
a  likerfate.  Betsie  McCray  refused  to  make 
any  Atetement  The  McCrays  had  been  re- 
mandedto  Jail  by,  the  Coroner's  Jury. 

Early  this  me«iing  the  streets  were 
crowded  with /Citizens  of  the  county,  who 
were  In  town;  to  hear  the  investigation  of 
the  Taliaferro  killing.  The  Sheriff  of  Le- 
/tlore  County  had  come  on  the  morning 
'  train  and  brought  with  him  Bill  Davis  and 
Belford  McCray.  who  were  suspected  of 
having  murdered  Mr.  and  Mrs.  "raliaferro, 
They  were  lodged  in  Jail  with  the  other 
suspects.  , 

At  the  suggestion  of  Judge  W.  F.  Stevens, 
a  committee,  consisting  of  District  Attor- 
ney W.  S.  Hill,  Dr.  Samuel  L.  Hart,  Watt 
Turner,  L.  E.  Southworth,  and  A.  H. 
George,  went  to  the  Jail  to  examine  wit- 
nesses and  investigate  the  killing  anU  re- 
port to  the  citizens  in  the  Court  House,  be- 
fore the  Jury  of  Inquest  should  proceed 
with  Its  work.  This  they  were  doing  in  a 
quiet  and  successful  manner,  when  it  was 
learned,  that  about  seventy-five  men,  grow 
ing  impatient  at  the  delay,  were  ready  to 
come  to  the  Jail  and  take  the  suspects  and 
hang  them.  ^ 

The /committee  Immediately  went  to  the 
Coyrf  House  aiid  called  the  people  together. 
They  seemed  satisfied  when  assured  that 
tBe  negroes  would  not  be  spirited  away 
aBB  that  the  final  Investigations  would  be 
held  in  public  in .  the  Court  House.  They 
added  to  the  committee  four  of  CarroUton's 
best  citizens,  who  wdre  neighbors  of  Mr, 
and  Mrs.  Taliaferro. 

The  tommittee  then  proceeded  to  the  jail 
to  complete  Its  work.  The  mob  continued 
Injpatient  and  restless.  In  the  meantime 
Gov.  Longino  had  telephoned  Judge  Stevens 
that  he  would  leave  Jackson  for  CarroUton 
on  the  2  o'clock  train  and  come  over  from 
Winona  on  a  special.  The  committee  be- 
ing' apprised  of  this,  did  their  best  to  kill 
time  so  that  the  Governor  might  arrive  and 
use  his  influence.  However,  they  deemed  it 
necessary  at  about  4  o'clock  to  make  an^ 
other  report  to  the  people. 

Mr.  Hill  reported  that  the  committee  had 
concluded  after  a  faithful  and  thorough 
examination  that  while  Belford  and  Betsie 
McCray  knew  that  the  Taliaferros  were  to 
be  killed  and  haoM^sented  themselves  from 
home  so.that  thjeyTillght  pfove  an  alibi,  the 
ones  .'B^o  h£t'd  actbally  committed  the  crime 
had  not  yet  been  eaught,  but  that  they 
believed  that  these  would  finally  dIV:tdKe 
the  w^iole  plot.  'Mr.  Hill  left  ,lt  to 
crowd  'as  to  whether  the  committee  should 
proceed  with  the  Investigation  or  drop  It, 
and  have  the  Jvry  of  inquest  proceed.  The 
crowd  was  unanimous  iil  instructing  the 
committee  to  proceed  with  the  Investiga- 
tion at  the.  Jail.  However,  as  the  crowd  was 
dispersing  from  the  Court  House  they  met 
about  fifty  men,  armed  with  shotguns  and 
rifles,  who  had  not  been  In  the  Court  House 
to  hear  the  last  report. 

These  men  proceeded  to  the  Jail,  where 
the  Deputy  Sheriff  promptly  opened  the 
door.  Three  men  went  up  stairs,  and 
brought  out  Belford,  Betsie  and  Ida  Mc- 
Cray. Judge  Stevens,  Messrs.  Hill  and 
George  and  other  citizens  begged  and  plead- 
ed with  them,  as  did  Lynn  Taliferro,  the 
son  of  the  murdered  couple,  not  to  kill  these 
negroes,  as  they  •ftould  thereby  thwart  the 
efforts  o*  Justice.  It  was  to  no  purpose; 
the  mob  was  determined  to  hang  the  pris- 
oners. They  took  the" three  negroes  under 
the  hill,  about  a  quarter  of  a  mile  from 
town,  and  hanged  them.  They  then  fired  at 
least  500  shots  into  their  bodies. 

The  Governor  arrived  Just  as  the  mob 
was  returning.  At  the  Court  House  he  ad- 
dressed a  large  crowd.  No  doubt  If  he  could 
have  reached  there  In  time  he  would  have 
prevented  the  lynching.  The  Governor  re- 
turned on  the  evening  train. 
.  Jim  Lane  was  brought  in  Just  as  the  mob 
was  dispersing.  It  I»-  not  known  what 
further  work  the  mob  will  do,  but  there 
are  many  rumors  afloat.  Some  say  that 
three  or  four  more  negroes,  living  In  the 
Taliaferro  neighborhood  will  be  lynched  to- 
night, and  it  Is  feared  by  some  that  one 
white  man  in  that  neighborhood  may  meet 
the  'same  fate.  ' 


"IVIAYOR  "  MALBERG  ARRESTED. 

Polibeman  Says  the  Prisoner  Menaced 
Him  with  a  Revolver. 

William  Malberg,  who  described  himself 
as  sbrty-six  years  old,  a  real  eTOte  dealer, 
and  living  at  2l'west'  Sixty-fifth  Street, 
was  locked  up  in  the  West  Sixty-eighth 
Street  Station  at  1  o'clock  this  moriiing 
charged  with  attempted  felonious  assault 
in  pulling  a  revolver  on  Patrolman  Higglns 
in  -  Fifty-ninth  Street,  between  Broadway 
and  Columbus  Avenue. 
.  Malberg  is  known  as  Wilhelm,  the  Mayor 
of  Fifty-ninth  Street.  He  is  the  reputed 
proprietor  of  340  and  342  West  Fifty-ninth 
Street.  After  the  passage  of  the  new  tene- 
ment house  law  Capt.  Donohue  of  the  West 
Forty-seventh  Street  Station  notified  Mal- 
berg that  he  would  have  to  comply  ■with 
that  law.  Yesterday  Malberg  sold  the -fur- 
nishings in  the  flats  and  a  large  furniture 
van  took  away  six  loads.  A  sign  was  hung 
In  front  o^  the  houses  stating  that  they 
were  for  rent  to  colored  families  only.  It 
is  said  that  Malberg  said  that  if  the  police 
molested  him  again  he  would  give/  them 
something  besides  "  gold  and  silver." 

Early  this  morning  Malberg  'was  riding 
his  bicycle  In  Fifty-ninth  Street,  when,  It  is 
said,  he  knocked  down  a  newsboy.  PoUce- 
maji  Higglns  ran  to  the  boy's  assistance, 
but  "the  latter  ran  away  uninjured.  Hig- 
glns then  asked  Malberg  why  he  wasn't 
careful,  and  the  latter.  It  Is  alleged,  made 
an  uncomplimentary  and  wrathful  remark 
about  the  policeman  In  pavjtloular  and  the

SAVED  FROM  CONt^lDEN(^  MEN. 

/erierable    Westerner    Rescuid  from 
Them  at  Waldorf-Astoria  iiy 
Hotel's  Detective. 

A  Colorado  man  who  is  registered  at  the 
Waldorf  Astorla\carae  very  near  getting 
into  the  Mutches  of  two  notorious  confi- 
dence men  -at  that  hotel  last  night  The 
Colorado  man  has  seen  little  of  metropoli- 
tan life,  it  is  said,  and  he  fell  easily  into 
the  first  stages  o|  the  trap  that  had  been 
set  for  him,  being  rescued  only  by.  the  time- 
ly appearance  of  the  Waldorf  detective. 
Smith. 

The  two  tonfidence  men  In  question  are 
known  to- the  police  as  Michael  Cohen  and 
Jim  Parker.  Last  evening  they  wep't  to 
the  Waldorf-Astoria,  dressid  In  evening 
clothes.  Wandering  around  the  corridors, 
they  esplea  a  venerable  gentleman  amus^ 
ing  himself  at  a  billiard  table.  Cohen  made 
Judicious  inquiries  at  the  hotel  desk  which 
resulted  In  his  obtaining  the  name  of  the 
Westerner. 

Then  he  went  to  the  Colorado  man,  and 
.said  to  the  visitor  familiarly,  "  Hello,  Mr. 
Blank,"  calling  him  bj'  name."  He  told- 
hini  how  glad  he  was  to  see  him  In  New, 
Yi.rk.  The  stranger  was  too  astonished 
to  acknowledge  that  he  did  not  enjoy  Co- 
hen's acquaintance.  Parker  was  intro- 
duced, and  they  had  arranged  to  play  a 
game  of  billiards. 

About  this  time  Detective '  Smith  ap- 
peared. Cohen  is  known  in  Scotland  Yard 
and  Smith  had  seen  him  In  London.  The 
confidence  men  were  asked  to  leave  at 
once.  The  hotel  guest  was  .puzzled  that 
his  newly  naafle  friends  should-  disappear 
so  suddenly,  (Silt  he  was  very  much  nap- 
pies when  the  detective  explained  the  whole 
situation  to  him. 


Special  to  The  New  York  times. 

PHILADELPHIA,  Aug.  1.— The  attention 
of  Hermann  Barthman,  owner  -of  a  large 
number  of  shoe  stores,  whose  main  office 
Is  at  2254  Front  Street,  was  to-day  called 
to  a  press  dispatch  from  Vienna  to  the  ef- 
fect that  an  uproar  had  been  caused  as  the 
result  of  Mr.  Barthman's  agents  having 
taken  steps  to  open  American  .shoe  stpres 
in  that  city.  He  laughed  heartily  at  the 
idea  that  he  should  be  held  up  as  a  bogey 
by  the  trades  unions  of- the  empire  and  ex- 
plained that  he  is  a  native  of  Austria  and 
ttff.t  he.  has  many  relatives  living  there. 

jSoine  time  ago  Mr.  Barthman  decided 
ttikt  the  Austrlans  would  be  better  off  if 
they  had  a  few  enterprising  shoe  stores 
in  their  midst,  so  he  asked  his  relatives. to 
look  up  a  few  good  openings.  Then  he 
dismissed  the  affair  from  his  mind. 

"My  friends  must  have  gone  right  to 
work  to  have  caused  all  that  excitement, 
said  Mr:  Barthman  to-day.  "  For  my  part, 
I  have  given  the  project  up.  While  Ameri- 
can shoes  are  far  superior  to  those  In 
Austria,  and  can  be  sold  for  less,  yet  I  am 
convinced  that  ^he  Austrian  Government 
would  find  means  to  ta^  an  American 
store  out  'Of  existence.  There  are  many 
minor  taxes  In  Austria  that  the  merchants 
there  manage  to  escape,  but  all  would  be 
enforced  with  a  vengeance  against  an 
American.  So  I  shall  establish  no  stores 
there,  and  they  are  having  this  alarm  for 
nothljig. 

"  I  am  convinced  that  there  Is  a  great 
field  In  Austria  for  American  shbes  af 
American  prices.  Our  cheaper  grade 
would  be  a  benefaction  to  the  peasantry 
there,  most  of  whom  are  now  obliged  to 
wear  wooden  shoes.  But  under  present 
conditions  I  am  convinced  that  the  Govern- 
ment there  Would  find  some  means  to  make 
business  unprofitable." 

LONDON.  Aug.  2.— The  'Vienna  corre- 
spondent of  The  Morning  Leader  sayg: 

"  The  Austrian  Government  replying  to- 
day (Thursday)  to  the  shoemakers  -who 
had  appealed  for  a  prohibition  of  American 
competition  declined  to  irtterfere. 

"  As  soon  as  the  decision  of  th«  Govern 
ment  was  known  representatives  of  a  Phil 
adelphia  firm  who  had  been  waiting,  com 
Dieted  arrangements  to  take  sixteen  shops. 
They  will  place  themselves  under  the  pro- 
tection of  the  United  States  Legation  if  en- 
dangered by  the  threatened  violence." 

VIENNA,  Aug.  1.— The  Fremdenblatt 
publishes  ah  interview  with  Herr  Bitza, 
Chairman  of  the  Shoemakers'  Guild,  on  the. 
project  for  opening  American  retail,  shoe 
shops  In,  Austria. 

Herr  Bitza  says  the  Americans  can  sell 
30  per  cent,  cheaper  than|the  local  makers. 

The  excitement  ampng  the  latter  In- 
creases, and  violence  is '  talked  of  if  the 
projected  shops  are  opened. 

HOME  FOR  CRIPPLED  CHILDREN 

Boston  Man  Will  Build  One  on  «n  Island 
Leased  from  Harvard  University. 

Spetiil  la  The-Nn%  York  Times. 

BOSTON,  Aug.  1.— A^  C.    Burrage  has 
leased  Btimkln's  Island  p!rpm  Harvard  Unl 
versify  for  399  years,  aild  will  build  a  hos- 
pital on  it  and  make  it  a  f|;.ee  Summer  home 
for  the  crippled  children  of  Boston. 

This  act  of  philanthropy  was  suggested  to 
Mr.  Burrage  about  a  year  ago,  when  his 
son  was  injured  In  a  football  _scrlmmag:e 
and  confined  to  the  house  for  many,  weeks, 
Laist  year  Mr.  Burrage  maintained  sixteen 
crippled  children  at  Point  Allcrton,  ■ 

The  Island  will  be  provided  with  wharves, 
the  hospital  will  be  surrounded  by  well- 
latd-out  grouAds,  arid  fifty  -  acres  of  land 
being  available.  It  will  be  possible  to  pro- 
vide for  hundreds  of  Ifttle  cripples  there. 

Bumkln's  Island  lies  half  way  between 
Nantasket  and  Hingbam,  and  about  one 
and  a  quarter  miles  north  of  Hull.  It  was 
given  to  Harvard  College  by  Safflfuel  Ward, 
who  was  a  friend  of  John  Harvard.  The 
tern^  of  Ward's  will  were  such  that  the 
lanq  could  not  be  sold  outright.  It  has 
nevffl-  previously  been  put  to  any  use.  Bos- 
ton contractors  have  often  made  attempts 
to  purchase  it,  but  they  were,  of  bourse, 
unable  to  do  so.  It  was  wanted  because 
of  the  abundance  of  gravel'Mt  contains, 
Samuel  Ward  became  the  owner  of  the 
Island  through  a  grant  from  the  British 
Crown. 

The  home  for  crippled  children  -will  be 
erected  as  soon  as  possible.  The  terms  of 
the  lease  have  not  beAi  divulged.'  ^

CHICAGO  TRAIN  ROBBERS 
ALMOST  EMPTY  HANDED. 

Woman  Sa^s  They  Went  Through  • 
Sleeping  Car,  but  Got  Little  Booty. 

Special  tv  The  New  York  Times. 

CHICAGO,  Aug.  1.— Notwithsta'nding 
strenuous  efforts  of  the  officials  of  the 
Baltimore  and  Ohio  Railroad  to  suppress 
the  fact.  It  has  been  learned  that  of  the 
six  or  seven  bandits  who  held  up  the  New 
York  limited  near  this  city  last  night,  four 
went  through  a  sleeping  car  demanding 
money  and'  valuables  of  the  passengers. 
They  fared  almost  as  .poorly  as  did  their 
accomplices  who  tried ;  to  rob  the  express 
car.  One  woman  passenger,  who.had  pres- 
ence of  mind  enough- to  throw  her  purse 
and  Jewels  under  the  seat,  says : 

"  I  was  rea,ding  y/hen  the  train  stopped, 
and -I  did  nofnotlce  anything  wrong 'until 
I  heard  the  shots,  followed  by  the  explor 
sion  of  the  dynamise.  Shortly  afterward 
four  men  e.otered  the  car,  and  commenced 
to  go  through  it.  As  soon  as  T  heard  the 
commotion  outside  and^  heard  '  train  rob- 
bers,' I  threw  my  purse  under  the  iseat 
with  my  Jewel  case,  and  when  I  was  asked 
for  my  valuables  I  replied  that  1  had  none. 
The  .«cene  In  the  car  was  one  of  great 
confusion.  One  lady  nearly  ninety  years  old, 
who  was  travtllng  with  her  grandson,  be- 
came hysterical  in  her  Iright,  and  we  had 
great  dil'ticulty.  in  calpiing  her.  , 

"  The  robbers  were  not  masked,  and  the 
one  who  asked  me  for  my  money  was- a 
very  short  man.  He  had  one  pistol,  In  his 
hand  and  another  strapped  on  his  belt.  I 
saw  one  ol  the  men  passengers  at  the  end 
of  the  car  give  the  robbers  some  money,-b»^t 
I  couldn't  tell  how  much.  One  woman  who 
sat  near  me  hid  her  purse  In  her  dress  and 
kept  out  a  two-dollar  bill,  which  she  gave 
to  the  robbers. 

"  There  were  about  six  or  seven  men  In- 
the  car  and  they  were  all  so  frightened 
they  never  moved.  The  women  were  the 
coolest  by  far.  1  doti't  think  the  robbers 
got  So  very  much,  there  were  so  few  pas- 
sengers, and  these  few  seemed  to  have 
very  little  with  them.  Our  conductor  went 
out  and  flagged  the  train  behind  us,  after 
they  had  gone.  One  of  the  men  passengers

STANDARDJOIUN  TEXAS. 

Its  Agent  Gets  Big  State  Contract,  but 
Is  Said  Not  to  Have  Complied  with 
Anti-Trust  Law. 

Special  to  The  New  .York  Times. 
AUSTIN,  Texas,'  Aug.  1.— The  contract 
for  furnishing  crude  oil  for  fuel  to  all  of 
the  State  Institutions  for  nine  months,  be- 
ginning on  Sept.  1,  was  torday  awarded  to 
the  Waters-Pleree  Oil  Company,  the  South 
western  selling  agent  of  t*e  Standard  Oil 
Company.  The  prices  range  from  33  cents 
to.  00  cents'  a  barrel,  delivered.  The  wide 
range  of  prices  is  due  to  the  difference  in 
freight  charges. 
:  The  success  of  the  -  .Waterg-Pierce  Oil 
Company  in  bidding  against  the  producers 
of  the  Beaumont  field  is  considered  evi- 
'dence  that  the  Standard  Oil  Company  al- 
ready has  control  of  .that  field.  After  the 
contract  had  been  awarded.  It  was  learned 
that  the  officers  of  the  Waters-Pierce  OH 
Company  had  failed  to  make  affidavit  that 
it  is  not  a  trust  nor  in  any  way  connected 
with  a  trust.  The  period  for  making  this 
affidavit  under  the  anti-.trust  act  expired 
yesterday.  The  company  is  liable  to  a  pen- 
alty of  not  less  than  $200,  nor  more  than 
$5,000,  for  each  day  that  it  does  business  in 
the  State,  after  failing  to  comply  with  the 
law,  and  to  have  its  permit  to  do  business 
In  the  State  forfeited  upon  suit  by  the  At-

^       Special  to  The  New  York  Times. 

ST.  LOUIS,  Aug.  1.— The  famous  Jeffer- 
son Barracks  forest,  once  the  pride  of  Gen. 
Grant,  contalnlng  l,500  acres  =of  maghlflgeht 
-oak  trees,  wks  damaged  by  fire  this  week. 
The  fire  started  late  last  Saturday  night  or 
early  Simday  morning,  and  raged  for  three 
days  before  it  was  extinguished,  Wednes- 
day. Six  hundred  soldiers,  under  the  di- 
rection of  Lieut.  Henry  Watterson,  Jr., 
were  engaged  in-  fighting  the  flames,  and 
yesterday  was  the  first  day  of  rest  that 
they  had  during  the  week. 

A'  farmer  Just  south'  of  the  Government 
reiervation  was  burning  grass  and  dry 
brush  on  his  farm  last  Saturday  night,  and 
theWmllltary  authorities  are  of  the  opinion 
that  the  fire  started  from  this  source..  It 
was  discovered  Sunday  about .  noon  by  a 
private  at  the  barracks,  who  reported  It 
to  headquarters.  A  small  detail  was  sent 
to  extinguish  the  flames,  but  by  7  o'clock 
in  the  evening  the  conditions  were  becom- 
ing so  serious  that  the  entire  command  of 
some  600  men  was  ordered  out  to  stop  the 
conflagration.  The  military  authorities 
will  start  an  investigation  immediately  to 
"ascertain  Just  exactly  how  badly  the  trees 
"have  been  injured.  '  ,

ALBANY,  Aug.  1.— Despite  'watchful- 
liess,  the  original  manuscripts  in  the  State 
offices  and  State  Library  are  the  subjects 
of  vandalism.  The  original,  land  grants 
and  deeds  from  Indians,  kept  in  the  office  of 
the  Secretary  of  State,  In  many  instances 
lack  the  seals,  or  the  signatures  have  been 
cut  out.  •  Some  of  the  deeds  have  been 
stolen. 

The  latest  theft  In  the  State  Library  Is 
that  of  an  autograph  letter  presumably 
written  by  George  Washington  on  June  20, 
1780.  It  was  among  the  miscellaneous  let- 
ters In  the  bound  ■volume  of  the  Gov.  Clin- 
ton papers.  The  letter  was  contained  In 
Vol.  X.,  and  was  attached  to  a  stub.  This 
stub  was  neatly  cut  with  a  sharp  instru- 
mient  The  vandal  removed  also  entire 
Page  5  of  the  index,  which  told  what  the 
stolen  letter  referred  to.

Special  to  The  New  York  Times. 
ST.  LOUIS,  Aug.  l.-The  largest  photo- 
graph plate  ever  made  is  being  inanufac- 
tured  by  the  O.  Cramer  4)ry  Plate  Company 
of  St  Louis.  It  Is  8  feet  long  by  4  feet  and 
8  inches  wide,  and  %  of  .  an  inch  in  thick- 
ness. It  -will  be  used  by  George  Lawrence 
of  Chicago,  who  from  a  balloon  will  make 
eTphotograph.  of  St.  Paul  and  Minneapolis. 

To  make  the  DlB.te  it  was  necessary  for 
the  company,  to  procure  new  apparatus  of 
Enlarged  dtmensions.  A  great  marble  slab 
larger  than  the  plate  was  the  first  require- 
ment. Upon  this  the  plate  Is  resting,  'While 
the  coating  is  being  applied.  Large  blocks 
of  ice  beneath  It  keep  it  at  a  temperature 
that  will  cool  the  emulsion  as  rapidly  as  it 
is  applied.  '  ' 

The  making  of  such  large  plates  la  an 
experiment,  but  Emil  Cbamer  says  that  It 
4^n  be  carried  on  successfully,  and  proba- 
bly will  become  a  new  feature  of  the  busi-

BALTIMORE,  Aug.  1.  -The  pemocratlO 
State  C'onventton,  which  met  here  to-day, 
declared  that  the  purpo.-:  of  the  party.  If

his  successor,  in  the  ev  nt  of  Democratic 
victory,  will  be  Arthur  Pue  Gorman,  is 
thought  to  be  probable,  although  no  for- 
mal announcement  of  hi  candidacy  has  as 
yet  been  made.

to  Stand  as  Framed. 


fltap  Admiral's  Suggestion  and  the  Re- 
ply pf  the  Department  Will  Go 
Before  the  Court. 


WASHINGTON.  Aug.  1.— Formal  action 
In  the  matter  of  the  Schley  court  of  In- 
quiry was  to-day  confined  to  the  dispatch 
of  a  letter  to  Admiral  Dewey,  statins  that 
••  the-  department  herewith  transmits 
copies  of  letters  dated  July  27  and  Aug.  1. 
respecting  the  precept  under  which  the 
Court  of  Inquiry  in  the  case  of  Rear  Ad- 
miral Schley  is  to  be  convened."  The  court 
through  Admiral  Dewey  had  already  been" 
supplied  with  a  printed  copy  of  the  pre- 
cept itself.  The  correspondence  referred 
^o  is  Rear  .Admiral  Schley's  letter  sug- 
gesting the  omission  of  the  department's 
expression  of  opinion  touching  his  alleged 
di3oi)edience  of  order.*;,  and  the  reply  from 
Acting  Secretary  Hackett,  declining  to 
make  this  modification. 

It  is  very  rarely  that  a  precept  conven- 
ing a  court  of  inquiry  is  amended.  The 
department  s  action,  it  Is  stated,  while 
technically  declining  Rear  Admiral  Schley's 
suggestion,  does,  however,  In  fact,  amount 
to  an  amendment  on  the  lines  pointed  out 
by  him.  .A^.'^  indicated  in  the  letter  to  Ad- 
miral Dewey  this  correspondence  will  form 
a  part  ot  the  ri'cord  and  in  fact  is  a  sup- 
plemeiit  to  the  precept  and  ot  as  much 
force  as  the  original  dpcument. 

Ciypl.  Parker  of  counsel  for  Rear  Ad- 
miral Schley  J  continued  his  work  at  the 
Kavy  Department  to-day  of  scahning  the 
log  books  ani  other  records  bearing  upon 
the  operations  of  the  West  Indian  fleet. 
He  hopes  to  finish  this  week.  He  is  .main- 
taining a  close  silence  of  his  discoveries,  If 
he  has  made  any.  and  is  evidently  an  ob- 
ject ef  great  inlercst  ^o  the  naval  officers 
in.  the.  department,  who  watch  him  very 
closely,  and  use  every  precaution  to  pre- 
vent the  newspaper  men  from  coming  In 
touch  with  him.  The  log  books  are  pon- 
derous volumes,  and  are  watched  with 
the  most  jealous  care  at  all  times.  In  the 
■present  instance  a  keen  eyed  young  Lieu- 
tenant watches  the  turning  of  every  i'age 
of  the  volumes  to  make  sure  there  sJiall 
be  no  allerations  or  cxclssions.  ^ 

The' following  are  the  letters  that  have- 
pa;'sed  between  Rear  Admiral  Schley  and 
the  Navy  Department  respecting  the  pre- 
cept:

nent tacts  which  it  n-.ay  deem  to  be  established,

the  department  that  .  Paragraph  5  of  the  de- 
partment's'  precept. "  whMb  is  as  follows,  viz., 
"  tt.  The  circumstanQes  a\>tnding  and  the  rea-

priety of  his  conduct  in,' the  premises."  be 
modified  so  as  to  omit  the  department's  ex- 
pression of  opinion,  and  <hus  leave  the  court 
free  to  express  its  own  o(«ink)n  in  _that_  matter. 
"VJery  respectfully,  '  " 


He  has  also  made  himself  rather  ridiculous 
by  the  freedom  and  wllUngnWs  with  w)iloh 
be  has  discussed  bis  personal' affairs.

WASHINGTON,  Aug.  l.-The  "War  De- 
partment has  taken  coKnlzancei  of  the.  pub- 
lished Interview  of  Capf.  Thomas  P.  Schley 
regarding  the  court  of  Inquiry  upon  his 
father.  Rear  Admiral  Schley.  It  Is  under- 
stood that  the-  department  Informed  the 
Captain  th^t  stich  Interviews  are  contrary 
to  the  army  regulations. 

It  is  not  believed  that  a  general  order 
directing  army  officers  not  Jto  talk  for 
publication  about  such  matters  will  be 
necessary. 

SALT  LAKE,  Utah,  Aug.  l.-nWhen  shown 
the  Washington  dispatch  statfng  that  the 
War  Department  would  take  cognizance 
of  the  published  interview  regarding  the 
Court  of  Inquiry  upon  his  father.  Rear 
Admiral  Schley,  Capt.  Thomas  F.  Schley, 
who  is  stationed  at  Fort  Douglas  In  this 
city,  stated  that  the  interview,  as  pub- 
lished, was  wholly  unauthorized. 

'■  All  I  said  In  the  matter,"  continued 
Capt.  Schley,  "  was  that  I  was  naturally  a 
Schley  '  partisan.'  and  hoped  my  father 
would  be  fully  vindicated.  Siirely  there  Is 
nothing,  improper  in  a  son  wishing  his  fa- 
ther success.  I  positively  declined  to  enter 
into  a  discussion  of  the  merits  of  the  con- 
troversy. In  the  first  place,  I  am  not  com- 
petent to  discuss  the  f  ase.  because  !  know 
nothing  of  It.  My  father  has  never  spoken 
of  the  matter  to  me,  and  has  never  men- 
tioned it  In  his  letters.  If  my  father  has 
anything  '.up  his  sleeve,'  hei  has  not  noti- 
fied me  of  the  fact." 


BRYAN  ON  SCHLEY'S  SIDE. 


Nebraskan  Editorially  Denounces  the 
Assailants  of  the  Rear  Admiral. 

LINCOLN.  Neb.,  Aug.  l.-In  an  editorial 
article  in  The  Commoner,  commenting  on 
the  naval  controversy,  W.  J.  Bryan  takes 
the  side  of  Rear  Admiral  Schley,  giving 
him  credit  for  the  victory  at  Santiago  and 
declaring  it  a  "  pity  that  there  should  be 
any  cfantroversy  tTiat.  seeks  to  discredit  a 
brave,  honorable,  and  modest  sea  fighter, 
who  successfully  led  the  American  forces 
in  one  of  the  greatest.  If  not  the  greatest, 
naval  battles  in  the  history  of  the  world. 

Mr.  Bryan  denounces  E.  S.  Maclay's 
"  history "  of  the  battle,  and  thinks  it 
idrange  that  a  historian  finds  It  necessary 
"  to  resort  to  the  lowest  form  of  abuse 
In  dealing  with  k  historical  character," 
adding,  "  As  a  clerk  fn  the  navy  yards,  he 
should  be  displaced  because  of  his  out- 
rageous assaults  upon  a  man  who  has  been 
the  patient  victim  of  the  most  remarkable 
series  of  attacks  recorded  In  American 
history."  ^ 

MUST  HfiVE  SERGEANTS'  PAY. 

Corporation  Counsel's  Opinion  of  Law 
Concerning  Assignment  of  Patrol- 
men to  the  Detective  Bureau. 

Corporation  CSunsel  Whalen  has  doubts 
as  to  the  constitutionality  of  the  law  which 
permits  the  Commissioner  of  Police  to  pro- 
mote patrxilmen  and  Roundsmen  to  Ser- 
geants without  passing  a  civil  service  ex- 
amination. 

Mr.  Whalen  yesterday  sent  an  opinion  to 
Commissioner  Murphy  In  which  he  says: 

TWs  statute,  if  It  is  constitutional,  has  the 
practical  effect  ot  making  Sergeants  out  ot 
patrolmen  and  roundsmen  without  passing  any 
l_1vll  Service  eiamlnation.  I  express  no  opinion 
on  its  validity  at  lihls  time.  It  it  la  valid  the 
members  of  that  bureau  are  no  longer  patrolmen 
or  roundsmen;  they  are  Sertreants,  and  their 
salaries  sMould  be  Included  in  the  appropriation 
for  salaries  for  Sergeants. 

The  opinion  was  rendered  in  reply  to  a 
request  for  advice  as  to  the  making  up  of 
the  Police  Department  estimates  for  190:2. 

Mr.  Whalen  was  In  doubt  as  to  the  status 
of  patrolmen  and  roundsmen  who  are  as- 
signed to  the  Det^tlve  Bureau  or  Head- 
quarters staff  and  their  rate  of  pay. 
The  confusion  arose  from  the  amendment 
request,  a  court  of  Inquiry  to  investigate  your  ,  of  Section  21)0  ot  the  charter,  which  goes

Of  the  27th  ult  ,  In  whlcj^^yrrtr  acknowledge  the 
receipt  of  a  copy  of  thj^^der  convening.,  at  your 


conduct  during  the  war  with  Spain,  and  suggest 
that  Paragraph  u  of  said  order  directing,  the 
court  to  Inquire  Into  "  the  circumstances  at- 
tending and  the  reasons',  for  the*,  disobedience  by 
Commodore  Schley  ot  the  ordersNot  the  depart-

Inasmuch,  however,  as  It  Is  the  department's 
purpose  that  the  court  shall  be  absolutely  free-

•iR,  HACKETT'S  ACT  ADROIT. 

■  f -tisfaction  in  the  Bureau-^apt.  Park- 
er Complains  of  Annoyance. 

Si-t  cial  la  T/ii-  .V(;p  Ytrk  Times. 
AV.A.S'l.'NGTON.  Aug.  ].— The  action  of 
the  Navy  Department  in  refusing  to  amend 
the  precept  of  the  Schley  court  of  Inquiry 
Is  regarded  here  as  very  adroit,  and  ^o 
»ome  persons  in  the  Bureau  of  Naviga- 
tion ij  is  a  source  of  satisfaction.  It  la 
true  that  Assistant  Secretary  Hackett's 
letter,  being  sent  to  the  court  of  inquiry, 
practically  acta  as  an  anjtndment  ot  the 
precept,  it  allows  the  court  to  consider 
not  only  Rear  Admiral  Schley's  "  dis- 
obedience of  orders."  but  also  whether  he 
was  justified  in  diaobeymg  them.  But,  on 
.-  the  other  hand,  it  mak^s  no  provision  for 
a  report  that  he  did  not  disobey  orders 
at  all. 

Rear  Admiral  Schley's  ground  of  defense, 
It  is  said,  wljU  be  that  although  he  tele- 
graphed he  "  could  not  obey  orders,"  he 
actually  obeyed  them  af*T  sending  that 
^dispatch,  conditions  havlr ;  changed  so  as 
to  permit  it.  This  proof.  It  Is  said,  the 
Navy  Department  is  not  likely  to  voluntar- 
'    Uy  produce.   The  ^naclty  with  whlqh  the 
department    clings    to    the  disobedience 
charge  has  raised  the  presumption  ambng 
many  of  Rear  Admiral  -  Schley's  friends 
•   that  the  department  no  longer  hopes  to 
prove  Its  other  charges. 

Capt.  James  Parker,  of  counsel  for  Rear 
Admiral  Schley,  who  for  several  days  has 
been  examining  the  records,  has,  he  says, 
been  hampered  and  subjected  to  petty  an- 
noyances by  the  Bureau  of  Navigation.  Hm 
lias  been  compelled  to  cease,  his  work  be* 
fore  the  cloaing  hour  of  the  department; 
the  privilege  of  receiving  callers  ip  the  de- 
partment has  been  denied  him;  assistance 
fn  the  carriage  of  books  from  the  files  to 
the  rooln  where  he  works  has  been  refused 
him-  and  he  has  been  kept  under  jjonstant 
auri'elllance  by  one  of  Rear  Admiral  Crown- 
tnsshields'  subordinates,  who  notes  the  rec- 
ords and  papers  consulted  before  Capt, 
I'arker  had  fairlv  btgur  his  work.  Capt. 
Parker  complained  of  this  to  Assistant  Sec- 
fietary  Hackett  to-day,  ^nt  It  Is  not  known 
^th  what  success. 

Friends  ot  Rear  A*nlral  Schley  say  that 
Capt.  Parker  has  not  done  much  lo,  ad- 
vance hl&  client's  cause  since  he  came  here. 
He  ha.<i  talked  con.Mderably  In  quartcra 
rather  frlendlv  than  otherwise  to  the  antl-' 
Bchley  propaganda,  which  has  resulted  In 
torewsmlng  the  antt-8chley  element  of 
of  the  main  posits  la  t&t  delkniM. 


Into  effect  on  the.  1st  of  January  next.  The 
present  law.  Section  276  of  the  charter*, 
provides  for  6,382  patrolmen,  and  In  making 
up  the  departmental  estimates  the  salaries 
of  the  so-cal»d  Detective  Sergeants  were 
Included  In  the  appropriation  made  for  pa- 
trolmen. By  the  amended  charter.  Section 
2SK),  a  separate  office  bureau  of  detectives 
is  created.  This  Is  to  consist  of  the  pa- 
trolmen or  Roundsman  assigned  to  perform 
detective  duties. 

This  law  Is  Interpreted  by  the  Corpora- 
tion Counsel  to  mean  that  detectives  known 
as  Detective  Sergeants,  whether  they  are 
patrolmen  or  Roundsmen,  are  entitled  to 
the  same  pay  as  Sergeants  of  Police.

FIRE  WORKED,  NONE  SAW  IT. 

Ruined  White  Plains  ChurcK Schoolroom, 
Burned  Uself  Out,  Left  No  Marks 
Externally. 

WHITE  PLAINS,  N.  Y.,  Aug.  1.— Fire,  be- 
lieved to  have  been  started,  by  lightning  on 
Monday,  when  the  last  electrical  storm 
passed  over  this  place,  ruined  the  Sunday 
school  room  of  the  Baptist  Church  on  Mon 
day,  but  the  fact  was  not  discovered  until 
this  afternoon.  How  long  the  fire  buriftd 
Is  not  known  and  never  will  be.  Jt  proba- 
bly smoldered  for  a.  day  or  so,  and  after 
exhausting  the,  little  air  which  could  reach 
it,  died  out 

The  church  was  used  last  Sunday  and 
after  the  evening  servlct  Sexton  George 
Lent  locked  up  the  building,  closing  every 
door  ajid  window,  and  did  not  vlsltilt  again 
until  to-day,  when  there  was  to  have  beeii 
a  meeting  In  the  Sunday  school  room. 

The  church  Is  a  solid  stone  structure. 
Under  Its  roof  there  are  two  mali  roamS, 
the  larger  being  the  church  auditorium 
proper  and  the  smaller  the  Sunday  school 
room,  which  Is 'fifty  by  thirty  feet.  Its 
large  window  openings  are  filled  with 
stained  g'.ass  of  heavy  quality,  and  this  was 
doubtless  a  contributing  cause  to  the  pecu- 
liar action  of  the  fire,  as  ordinary  glass 
would  have  broken  under  the  heat  and  ad 
mltted  the  air  which  the  fire  needed  for  Its 
continuance.  Between  the  mam  auditorium 
and  the  Sunday  school  room  there  is  a  solid 
wall,  except  for  one  large,  thick  oakfen  door. 
The  celling  of  the  Sunday  school  room  and 
the  walls  are  of  plaster. 

The  bolt  of  lightning  tore  a  small  hole  lo. 
the  roof  near  the  eaves"  and  descended  some 
distance  through  the  side  wall  plaster  be- 
fore It  ^merged.  ^  From  the  point  of  the 
bolt's  leaving,  the  wall  to  the  floor  the  -tas- 
ter and  lath  are  ripped  out,  showlng-the 
'  back  of  the  stone  facing.  In  Its  course  the 
lightning  hit  the  gas  pipe  running  up 
through  the  wall  and  broke  off  the  fixture. 
The  gas  released  by  the  breaking  of  the 
fixture  took  fire  either  from  the  bolt  Itself 
or  the  fire  which  followed,  and  It  was  still 
emitting  a  flame  three  feet  long  when  Sex- 
ton Lent  entered  this  afternoon. - 

From  the  wall  close  to  the  floor  it  Is  sup- 
posed the  bolt  leaped  to  the  large  reed  or- 
gan which  stood  on  the  floor  not  far  from 
where  the  bolt  emerged.  There  is  burned 
In  the  floor  at  that  point  a  hole  of  Irregular 
shape,  but  about  twelve  by  fourteen  feet: 
The  four  by  six  beams  which  supported  the 
floor  are  burned  to  a  depth  of  three  Inches 
and  charred  for  another  Inch.  Of  the  wood- 
worii  and  other  combustible  parts  of  the  or- 
gan kothlng  xemalris  but  fine  asWes:  The 
chairs  near  by,  the  books,  and  the  organ 
.seat  were  destroyed.  Tor  several  fleet  away 
from  the  edges  of  the  hole  burn^  In  the 
floor  the  chairs  are  charred  and  blistered 
still  further  back.  \ 

Tba-i{ooT  leading  (rom  the  Sunday  school 
jeomi  into  the  malii  auditorium,  although 
.some  distance  from  the  hole  In  the  floor, 
has  the  varnish  melted  off  and  the  wood- 
work blackened  by  the  smoke  and  Tieat. 
The  varnish  In  all  parts  of  the ;  room  Is 
blistered,  showing  that  for  a  time  the  heat 
must  have  been  very  great. 

The  loss-  will  be  consldenable,  but  Just 
what  the  officials  of  the  church  have  not 
had  an  opportunity  to  figure  out. 

Three  Children  Fall  Out  Ot  Windows. 

Three  children  fell  from  windows  in  their 
homes  In  Jersey  City  last  night  Within  an 
hour.  They  were  Robert  Handow,  two 
years  old,  of  247  Cambridge  Avesue;  Ed- 
ward 2abrlskie,  four  years  old,  of  62  Canal 
Street,  and  Patrick  O'Hara,  three  years 
old,  of  23  Brunswick  atr,e«t.  The  two  first, 
whch.  fell  from  the  second  story,  will  re-

BUSINESS  TBiNSFEMB 

The  George  H.  Phillips  Company^ 
F(N^  IQ  Abandon  Deals. 


Announcement  Ma^e  that  Books  Are  In 
Such  Tanked  Condition  that  Status 
of  Trades  Cannot  Be  Ascertained. 


Special' to  The  Neva  York  Times. 

CHICAGO,  Aug.  1.— Board  of  Trade  and 
business  circles  generally  were  startled  to- 
day by  the  announcement  that  the  George 
H.  Phillips  Company,  which  became  fa- 
mous through  its  pool  operations  in  the 
Chicago  corn  pit  during- the  past, year,  had 
transferred  all  its  open  trades  to  McReyn- 
olds  &  Co.  It  was  at  first  rumored  that  a 
large  defalcation  had  been  discovered  in  an 
examination  of  the  books,  but  this  proved 
untrue,  having  Its  only  fouadatlon  In  the 
fact  that  one  of  the  head  bookkeepers  was 
confined  to  his  home  by  illness. 

Lack  of  facilities  for  the  proper  clerical 
needs  of  the  concern,  which  had  acqulried 
an  enormous  commission  trade,  was,  ac- 
cording 'to  a  statement  made  by  John  S. 
Goodwin,  who,  as  a  representative  of  the 
law  firm  of  Black  &  Goodwin,  has  taken 
charge  of  the  company's  affairs,  was  the 
sole  reason  for  temporarily  suspending 
business. 

The  tangled  condition  of  -the  book^  be- 
came apparent  some  time  ago,  when  the 
Board  of  Trade  Directors  ruled  that  the 
company  should  furnish  to  each  member  of 
the  May  corn  pool  a  detailed  account  of 
the  entire  transaction.  A  large  force  was 
then  put  to  work  on  the  books,  and  in 
their  efforts  to  disentangle  the  multitudin- 
ous trades  it  became  apparent  that  every 
trade  on  the  company's  books  since  Novem- 
ber, 1900,  would  have  to  be  checked  over, 
entailing  an  enormous  amount  of  work.  As 
the  firm's  business  kept  Increasing  at  a  re- 
markable rate,  the  machinery  of  the  house 
was  found  inadequate,  and,  at  midnight, 
on  July  31,  it  was  decided  to  simply  trans- 
fer all  trades,  and  for  Vie-time  being  throw 
the  business  ot  the  house  into  other  hands 
imtll  a  complete  new  set  of  books  shall 
have  been  compiled. 

Mr.  Phillips,  while  regretting  the  neces- 
sity of  this  action,  said  it  was  absolutely 
the  only  course  open  to  him. 

"  This  does  not  mean  we  are  quitting 
business,"  he  said.  "  On  the  contrary,  we 
shall  execute"  all  orders,  but  will  have  to 
ask  that  usual  margins  accompany  all  or- 
ders until  our  books  are  checked  over. 

"  One  of  the  experts  came  to  me  yester- 
day at  noon,  and  from  the  books  showed 
one  error  of  $66,000,  which  apparently  is 
against  the  house.  And  this  seems  to  be 
only  one  of  the  many  straws  which,  when 
blown  aside,  disclos'e  the  condition  of  our 
books.  On  the  May  corn  deal  our  books 
show,  and  with  accuracy,  too,  so  It  seems, 
that  we  paid  out  2  cents  too  much  per 
bushel  on  our  deals. 

"  It  is  difficult,  -1  might  say  impossible, 
for  the  ordinary  man  to  fully  realize  the 
tremendous  volume  of  business  that  we 
have  handled.  Flooded  Is  no  name  for  It. 
The  famous  Biblical  flood  during  Noah's 
time,  overwhelming  the  earth,  is  more  apt 
to  explain  what  the  amount  of  business  we 
have  handled  since  1900  foots  up.  Our  dally 
business  transactions  have  reached  1,«00,- 
01)0  to  6,000,000  of  bushels  since  Jan.  1,  1901. 
That  record  is  not  equaled  on  any  market 
In  the  world,  and  has  never  been  equaled." 

In  explaining  the  action  of  the  company, 
attorney  Goodwin  said  to-day: 

"  The  company  was  Incorporated  In  No- 
vember, 1900,  with  a  capital  of  ?30,000.  The 
business  grew  so  rapidly  that  In  the  Spring 
of  this  year  the  capital  was  Increased  to 
$250,000,  and,  with  that  increase,  came  still 
additional  Increase  in  business,  so  that  the 
office  force  was  simply  overwhelmed.  We 
have  been  doing  the  largest  commission 
business  of  any  house  in  the  world,-  but  It 
had  recently  come  to  the.  attention  of  the 
firm  that  the  records  of  the  transactions 
were  not  being  kept,  in  the  proper  shape  for 
such  deals.  About  a  week  ago  expert  ac- 
countants were  put  to  work  on  the  books. 
I  have  gone  over  the  legal  end  of  the  firm's 
affairs,  and  have  found  it  absolutely  cor- 
rect. 

"  The  expert  accountants  found  that  it 
would  be  absolutely  necessary  to  make  a 
new  set  of  books  dating'  from  Jan.  1,  .1900, 
and  checliing  every  item-  of  the  immense 
business.  The  errors  were,  apparently, 
malde  without  partiality,  credits  being  deb- 
ited, and  vice  versa.  But,  up  to  4  o'clock 
P.  M.  yesterday,  after  a  week's  work,  and 
after  all  errors  iKid  been  cerrected  up  to 
that  time,  the  bo.oks  showed  the  firm  to  be 
absolutely  solvent.  On  my  advice  they  cut 
off,  however,  all  old  business  at  midnight 
last  night— the  last  day  of  the  month,  and 
transferred  all  their  open  trades  to  Mc- 
Keynolds.  Every  trade  of  the  house  is 
protected,  and  every  trade  made  yesterday 
was  made  ,at  a  profit  for  the  customers., 

"  We  are  sending  out  a  circular  asking 
all  our  custdmers  to  send  us  a  statement  of 
their  claims  against  the  company,  so  that 
we  may  have  them  audited,  and  use  them 
in  preparing  a  new  set  of  books,  with  the 
expectation  that,  unless  something  happens 
which  does  not  seem  probable,  we  shall 
take  care  of  every  claim  and  proceed  with 
the  business  as  heretofore.  The  account- 
ant, so  far,  has  found  no  evidence  what- 
ever of  criminal  Irregularity,  but  simply 
mistakes  due  to  the  Immense  amount  of 
business  handled  with  Inadequate  facilities 
for  caring  therefor." 
The  after  effect  of  the  suspension  was 

ear 
ull 


not  apparent  In  the  corn  market  until  ni 
the  end  of  the  session.  Corn  opened  a 
bqt  firm,  because  of  damage  claims  froni 


the'  "West,  and  also  becEjuse  -no  more  rain 
was  reported.  One  Iowa  message  predicted 
one-eighth  of  a  crop  for  portions  of  that 
State,  while  farmers  were  being  advised  to 
cuU  up  their  crop  now  for  fodder,  rather 
than  accept  the  chance  of  an  Improvement 
In  the  situation. 

Following  the  opening  there  was  consid- 
erable sellinj},  partly  liquidation,  but  large- 
ly by  bears  who  anticipated  liquidation  in 
consequence  of  the  temporary  suspension 
"of  the  Phillips  house.  Later,  shorts  be- 
came alarmed  at  the  fact  that  the  expected 
liquidation  had  not  comfe.  and  this,  together 
with  the  Influence  of  additional  crop  dam- 
age stories,  caused  a  sharito.rally,  and  the 
close,  was  strong  kt  the  best  raarks  of  the

Not  even  the  famous  Joseph  Letter,  -with 
his  staggering  wheat  speculations,  gave  thfe 
Chicago  Board  of  Trade  sucn  a  stirring  up 
as  did  Geo^  H.  Phillips  in  November  of 
last  }-ear.  In  hla  tradings  of  a  few  days  he 
if  supposed  Xq  have  cleared  between  $150,- 
000  and  $200,000.  He  had  the  whole  mar- 
ket at  Ms  mercy,  and  but  for  his  voluntary 
relinqUiAunent  of  numerous  qlaims  against 
"  shorts  "  there  would  have  been  many  fail- 
ures. In  march  of  this  year  he  startled 
the  marlfet  again  by  lively  speculation  in 
corn,  wheat,  and  oats,  and  his  itrofits  from 
the  deals  are  related  as  having  been  very 
great. 

This  daring  operator,  whose  comer  of  the 
corn  market  won  for  him  the  sobriquet  of 
"  the  Corn  King,"  Is  only  thirty-four  years 
old.  He  made  a  very  modest  beginning  In 
life,  starting  as  an  elevator  boy  In  his  fa- 
ther's grain  storehouse  In  Morris,  III.,  when 
he  was  very  young.  In  later  years  he  be- 
came a  buyer  for  the  house  of  George  A. 
Seavems  &  Co.,  and  then^he  went  Into  the 
commission  business  on  his  own  account. 

Phillips  formed  the  opinion  that  the  bears 
kept  the  price  of  com  too"  loW  in  the  Chi- 
cago market  And  that  it  could  be  main- 
tained at  a  high  price  If  any  one  dared  to 
make  the  fight.  Phillips  dared.  It  was 
his  corn  deal  of  November,  1900.  And  he 
succeeded;  "Without  a  dollar  to  control 
the  market,  he  nevertheless  had  the  whole 
com  crop  under  his  thumb.  He  caused 
heavy  losses  to  every  corn  trader  In  the 
Board  of  Trade.  But  he  was  fair  In  his 
wlnn,lngs.  did  not  cause  a  single  fail- 
ure In  tbt^Board  of  Trade,  although  he  had 
It  easily  m  his  power  to  do  so. 

This  young  man  has  upset  the  cafcula- 
tlons  of  the  Board  of  Trade  of  Chicago  in 
many  ways.  In  the  first  place,  he  depend- 
ed for  his  information  about  crops  directly 
upon  farmers  themselves,  Instead  of  tak- 
ing the  news  from  the  regular  channels. 
He  went  Into  the  market  on  tlie  broad 
principle  that  he  knew  what  he  was  doing, 
and  he  did  not  stop  until  he  had  bewildered 
the  men  who  had  been  in  deals  before  Phil-  < 
lIpB  was  born.  When  In  New  Tork  a'  few 
weeks  ago.  the  second  visit  he  had  ever 
made  to  .this  city,  Mr. 'Phillips  told  a  re- 
porter that  the  principle  of  all  his  trading 
was  to  be  found  in  this  motto,  which  was 
written  in  his  notebook:  "When  an  article 
In  good  demand  is  cheap,  and  you  have 
money  to  Invest,  buy  It." 

Farmers  have  been '  back  of  Phillips  In 
all  of  his  deals.  It  la  reported  that  In  his 
great  corn  deal  300  farmers  In  Iowa  and 
Central  Illinois  were  the  backbone  of  his 
fight.  It  was  virtually  ,a  battle  between 
these  300,  led  by  ^PhllUps,  against  the  rec- 
ognized forces  of  the  market  Ttt,  even 
In  view  of  this  big  deal,  Geei^e  H.'  Phillips 
did  not  come  to  be  any  rocognised  perma- 
nent factor  in  the  Chlctqr<^  market.  He 
has  lived  a  qtalfet,  harfT-working  life,  and 
what  he  ha«  acntmpllshed  has  been  due  to

S-iU  further  sparring  took  place  yester- 
day In  the  Divver-Poley  row  over  the  house 
at  ';6  Elm  Street,  begun  by  Cornelius  Sulli- 
vai  ,  a  Dlvver  Captain-  and  the  stepfather 
of  Mrs.  Alice  Grady,  who  leases,  the  house 
f  ro  n  the  city,  and  who  sought  to  dispossess 
Ge<  rge  and  Henry  Schierhorst,  followers 
of  •'oley,  occupying  a  floor  which  they  had 
sut  leased  from  Mrs.  Gfe-ady.  Henry  Schier- 
horst, backed  by  tl;e  Foley  organization, 
we  it  to  the  Controller's  office  on  Wednes- 
da  and  offered  to  pay  $50  a  month  rental 
for.  the  house  as  against  Mrs.  Qtady's  $40. 
He  claims  that  he  signed  a  contract  for  the 
mt  nth  of  August,  and  that  he  waa  required 
to'  file  a  bond  of  security  for  $100  guaran- 
teeing the  payment  of  two  months'  rent. 
Th  m  he  notified  the  Gradys  that  they 
wc  lid  have  to  quit  the  place,  and  this  waa 
th(  situation  yesterday  morning  when  the 
Co  itroller's  office  fotmd  that  a  peculiar 
po'  tical  row  had  been  forced  on  the  de- 
pa- tment. 

J  s  soon  as  the  offices  ot  Controller  Coler 
W€  e  opened,  Mrsi  Grady  appeared  before 
Su  perintendent  O'Brien  of  the  Bureau  of 
Rentals  to  protest  against  the  renting  of 
th€  premises  to  Schierhorst.  With  her  were 
Mr.  Sullivan,  her  stepfather,  and  Patrick 
Dl'-ver  111  person.  She  bad  with  her  a  con- 
trsct  sent  to  all  the  tenants  of  city  prop- 
erl.v  leased  by  the  month,  in  which  she 
ag'.  eed  to  rent  the  premises  during  the 
month  of  August. 

The  point  was  raised  that  the  contract 
sei:t  to  Mrs.  Grady  was  received  by  her 
on  July  22,  aiid  that  it  was  virtually .  the 
closing  of.  the  bargain  for  renting  the  place 
for  the  month  of  August,  ihey -convinced 
Su:ierlntendent  O'Brien,  and  he  recalled  the 
lea.Je  of  the  Schlerhorsts,  and  signed  Hhe 
contract  and  received  the  $40  rental,  which 
cllr.ched  the  bargain  between  the  city  and 
Mr;5.  Grady,  at  least  for  another  month. 
Then  notice  of  the  new  deal  was  sent  to 
the  home  of  the  Schlerhorsts. 

T'heij  Henry  Schierhorst  lettmied  from 
his  work  during  the  dinner  hour  he  re- 
cei.'ed  the  notice,  and  while  he  was  read- 
ing It  there  came  a  knock  at  the  door  and 
a  folded  document  was  handed  to  him, 
anci  the  messenger  scampered  off  before 
Schierhorst  had  time  to  think.  The  docu- 
ment was  a  dispossess  notice.  The  Schier- 
h6r.5ts  were  ordered  to  quit  the  preinlses 
by  3  o'clock. 

Shortly  after  noon  a  number  of  reporters 
weve  in  the  office  of  Superintendent 
0|£;rien,  who  was  explaining  the  case. 

'■  It  makes  no  difference  what  Schierhorst 
claims,"  he  said,  "the  fact  Is  that  he  did 
not  sign  a  lease  or  enter  into  a  contract 
with  the  <?Ity.  Hfe  came  here  to  make  the 
offrr  of  leasing  the  place  at  $50,  but  before 
he  "lad  a  chance  to  accept  was  notified  that 
tl)e  blank  contract  already  sent  to  Mrs. 
GtEdy  was  binding  and  that  at  least  for 
this  month  Mrs.  Grady  would  lease  the 
pre.Tilses.  Some  understanding  has  been: 
reached  by  the  Gradys  and  the  Schler- 
horsts, and  both  families  will  remain  where 
the  -  are,  and  everything  Is  sweet  and  love- 
ly End  amicably  settled."   \  ■ 

H  irdly  were  the  words  out  of  the  Su- 
perintendent's mouth  when  in  walked  two 
men.  One  of  them  was  veryjaje  and  the 
oth-T  very  red  in  the  face.  The  pale  one 
was-  Henry  Schierhorst,  who  was  much  ex- 
cite! and  clung  to  the  supporting  arm  of 
the  red-faced  man,  who  was.  Lawyer  John 
Hover  and  he  had  the  light  of  fight  In  his 
eye.  Mr.  Hoyer  shook  a  document  In  Su- 
perintendent O'Brien's  face. 

"  My  clieiit  has  just  received  this,  and  !t 
is  p  dispossess  notice,  served  on  him  an 
hotr  ago,  and  It  requires  him  to  appear  at 
S  o'clock  before  Magistrate  Bolte.to  show 
cause  why  he  should  not  be  dispossessed. 

Mr.  O'Brien 'took  all  of  five  minutes  to 
recover  from  the  surprise,  then  he  said  not 
a  v'ord,  but  put  on  bis  hat  and  drew  on 
Ms  coat. 

'"Now,  if  you  boys  will  stay  here,", he 
sale  finally  to  the  reporters,  -"  Mr.  Hoyer 
a  nf  I  will  go  up  to  that  house  and  see  Mrs. 
GrF  dy,  and  there- will  be  no  dispossess  pro- 
cee  lings,  I  can  assure  you." 

C  introUer  Coler  was  seen  on  the  way 
to  the  Grady  .homestead  and  was  ^ked 
whe  ther  he  had  canceled  the  contract  of 
the  Schlerhorsts  and  given  it  to  the  former 
tenant.  , 

'•  ::anceled  nothing,"  Mr.  Coler  answered. 
''.  I-have  not  even  known  of  this  affair  ex- 
cep-  through  the  newspapers.  It  Is  in  "the 
hands  of  Superintendent  O'Brien,  who  does 
aill  the  signing  of  contracts.  It  is  simply 
a  roliticak  fight  in  which  we  are  being 
drawn,  and  I  resent  the  entire  proceedings 
and  will  not  put  up  with  it.  For  tills 
month,  of  course,  if  Mrs,  Grady  holds  a 
compact,  I  cannot  have  Ker  removed  from 
the  house.  But  here  ^s  an  Imputation  that 
one  of  the  tenants  will  prevent  another 
from  voting  by  forcing  nlm  out  of  the 
house  so  that  he  .will  lose  the  right  of  his 
vot>;  by  not  being  resident  long  enough  in 
a  certain  district. 

;  "  Now,  I  care  nothing  for  the  differences 
that  Mr.  Dlvver  and  Mr.  Foley  may  have. 
But  there  is  one'  thing  I  will  do  If  this 
thing  does  not  stop.  I'll  fire  the  whole 
Shooting  match.  Into  the  street,  and  then 
neither  Foleyite  nor  Divverlte  In  the  place 
will  have  a  vote." 

I  Meanwhile  Lawyer  Hoyer  and  Superin- 
tendent O'Brien,  accompanied  by  the  re- 
porters, went  to  the  house  at  66.£lm  Street 
to  lay  down  the  Jaw  to  Mrs.  Grady.  The 
Superintendent  insisted  on  seeing  Mts. 
GradV  privately,  and  when  he  returned 
announced  that  Mrs.  Grady  said  that  she 
did  not  know  who  had  authorized  the  dis- 
po!:ses8  proceedings,  but-  that  she  had  not 
authorized  them.  <  ' 

To  complicate  matters  further,  when  the 
case  came  up  befoi;e  Magistrate  Bolte  Mrs. 
Grady  appeared,  and  was  represented  by 
Mr.  Hoyer,  the  counsel  of  Schierhorst, 
Counsel  informed  the  Court  that  Mrs. 
6rady  had  not  authorized  the  dispossess 
li>rooeedings,  and  moreover  declared  that 
the  name  of  Cornelius  Sullivan,  that  of  her 
stepfather,  was  not  in  the  handwriting  of 
that  person. 

:  •■  Do  you  know  the  handwriting  of  Mr. 
Sullivan  when  you  see  it?  "  the  CouM  asked 
Mrs.  Grady. 
"  I  dor-when  I  see  it,  yes. 
"  Have  you  />ften  seen  the  handwriting 
pf  Mr.  Bulllvith?  "  - 

"Not  too  often— he  does  not  write  very 
often,  you  know," 

i  The  Magistrate  ttteii  said  that  an  Imposi- 
tion on  the  Court  -had  been  perpetrated, 
and  that  it  would  be  thoroughly  investi- 
gated. The  case  was  then  postponed  udtil 
Monday  morning. 

:  After  the  proceeding  in  court  Lawyer 
Hojrer  said: 

"  We  mean  to  force  this  fight.  The  prM- 
ent  vvork  was  but  temporary  to  stave  off 
the  dl^^ossess  notice.  But  the  fact  remaljis 
that  in'the  presence  ot  a  ■witness  my  client 
signed  the  contract  with  Supefintendant 
O'Brien  to  lease  the  house  at  68  Elm  Street' 
for  $50  a  month.  Moreover,  1  'Will  prove  by 
the  books  on  file  in  the  department  that 
the  $100  was  accepted  as  a  security  that 
the  first  two  months'  rent  be  paid.  Oh, 
this  is  only  the  beginning  of  things." 
I  Just  then  Mrs.  Grady  brushed  by  the  ro- 

Forters.  "  If  you  say  one  word  of  all  this 
will  simply  refuse  to  come  here  the  next 
time,"  she  said.  "  I  "do  not  waiit  one  word 
of  this  to  appear  in  the  newspapers.  Hind, 
I  mean  what  I  say,  write  this  and  I'll  not

PirriBUBG,  Aug.  1.— The  third  all-day 
session  of  the  Executive  Board  of  ^  the 
Amalgamated  Association  of  -  Iron,  Steel, 
and  Tin  Workers  has  passed  -without  any, 
action  being  taken  on  the  New  York  con- 
ference peace"  proposals,  and  another  ses- 
sion will  be  held  to-morrow.  The  Execu- 
tive Board  of  the  steel  'strikers'  associa- 
tion Is  Waiting 'fo'r  a  word  from  J.  Pferpont 
Morgan. 

After  the  board  had  heard  from  President 
Shaffer  concerning  his  trip  to  New  York 
last  week,  it  was  decided  to.  request  a 
change  in  the  prepositions  of  Mr.  Morgan, 
and  a  message  waa  sent  to  Mr.  Morgan  in 
New  York  on  Tuesday  night  announcing 
the  board's  decision  on  this  matter.  In  ex- 
planation of  this  message.  The  Amalga- 
mated Journal,  the  official  organ  of  the 
association,  says: 

The  Executive  Board  desires  another 
conference  with  the  representatives  of  the 
constituent  companies,  and  ■will  remain  in 
the  city  until  an  answer  is  received;  Upon 
the  result  of  that  anSwer  will  depend 
whether  the  strike  will  be  prolonged  in- 
definitely." 

In  the  same  statement  of  the  result  of  the 
conference  of  the  Executive  Board,  'the 
Journal  has  this  to  say: 

The  strike  sltuitjon,  as  we  go  to  press, 
is  about  the  same  as  it  was  one.  week  ago, 
as  far  as  the  working  conditions  of  the 
mills  are  concerned.'  No  attempt  has  been 
made  to  start  any  >f  the  closed  mills  out- 
Side  of  the  WellsvIUe  plant  of  the  America 
Sheet  Steel  Company,  and  their  effort  In 
this  instance  has  been  a  failure.  _.^.„,^ 
"  The  most  lntereStl|ig  phase  of  the  strike 
during  the  past  week  was  the  trip  of  Presi- 
dent Shaffer  and  Secretary  Williams  to 
New  York.  ^  They  were  accompanied  by 
Col.  George  B.  M.  Harvey,  who  had  come 
on  from  New  York  as  a  representative 
Mr.  J.  P.  Morgan,  and  who  suggested  that 
If  President  Shaffer  and  Secretary  Williams 
would  go  to  New  York  he  could  arrange  a 
meeting  fbr  them  with  Mr.  Morgan.-  Col. 
Harvey  thought  this  would  be  the  best  way 
to  reach  a  better  understanding,  and  pave 
the  way  for  a  settlement  of  the  strike. 

"  President  Shaffer,  after  consulting  -with 
the  other  national  officials  decided  to  ao 
on  Col.  Harvey's  proposition.  In  accord 
ance  with  this  decision  President  Shaffer 
and  Secretary  Williams  met  J.  P-  Morgan, 
President  Schwab  of  the  United  .States 
Steel  Corporation,,  and  Judge  gpry>_*Jjad 
of  the  operating  department.  Mat 'Satw- 
day.  After  some  hours  of  dlscusslon^jhe 
officials  of  the  United  States  Steel  Cor- 
poration asked  Presldetvt  Shaffer  to  call 
the  executive  board  together  to  see  If  a 
settlement  could  not  be  reached  along  tne 
lines  indicated  by  Mr.  Morgan  and  nls 
colleagues.  President  Shaffer  and  Secre- 
tary Williams  consented,  with  the  result 
that  a  meeUng  of  the  executive  board  was 
held  at  the  national  headquarters  Tuesday, 
and  the  result  >ot  their  deliberation  was 
sent  to  New  York  the  same  evening. 

The  message  sent  to  Mr.  Morgan,  ■while 
not  so  stated,  is  believed  to  be  an  ulti- 
matum to  the  United  States  Steel  Corpor- 
ation. It  is  viewed  as  such  by  the  labor 
leaders  about'*Plttsburg.  If  the  steel  work- 
ers do  not  get  their,  demand  for  tills  con- 
ference tli^  strike  will  go  on  indefinitely 
None  of /the  officials  *of  the  oreanizatloii 
would  discuss  this  point  to-day.  They  stiU 
maintain  their  silence  and  said  they  ,had 
nothing  to  give  out.  At  noon,  after  the 
executwe  board  had  been  in  sssslon  all 
morning  and'  in  a  formal  manner  waited 
for  a  reply  from  Mr.  Morgan,  the  tnem- 
bers  decided  to  make  an  official  denial  of 
the  report  that  there  was  a  lack  of  har- 
mony In  their  ranks.  To  the  reporters 
present  they  gave  out  the  following: 

"  We,  the  members  of  the  General  Ex- 
ecutive Board  of  the  Amalgamated  Asso>- 
elation,  desire  to  deny  emphatically  the 
reports  published  expressive  of  disagree- 
ment among  us.  We  are  disposing  of  the 
work  before  the  committee  as  fast  as  its 
Importance  will  peainit.  member  has 
expressed  any  opinion  or  given  any  state- 
ment of  the  business,  .ot  of  the  attitude 
of  other  members.  Nothing  has  been  made 
public,  neither  will,  any  report  issue  from 
us  until  a  definite  conclusion  Is  reached. 
We  are  simply  trying  to  reach  a  settle- 
ment which  shall  be  honorable  and  satis- 
factory to  all  concerned." 

Whatever  differences  might  have  existed 
are  said  to  have  been  adjusted  satisfacto- 
rily, and  the  board  stands  as  a"  unit  for  Its 
demand  for  the  renewal  of  the  conference 
with  the  manufacturers'  representatives. 
Much  depends  on  this.  The  propositions  of 
Mr.  Morgan  arc  said  by  one  high  in  author- 
ity, to  be  Incomplete,  and  do  not  settle  the 
dispute,  'me  members  of  the  Executive 
Board  are  willing  to  conlder  what  they 
term  reasonable  and  fair  propositions  for 
-the  adjustment  of  these  dlffloultlea,  but  to 
do  this  they  must  confer  with  the  operaUtig 
officials  and  have  these  details  fully  under- 
stood and  'agreed  "upon.  To  accept  the  prop- 
ositions as  they  now  stand  would  oiily  com- 
plicate matters  more,  according  to  the  of- 
ficials of  the  association. 

"Whether  or  not  Mr.  Morgan  will  answer 
the  message  of  the  Amalgamated  Associa- 
tion seems  to  be  a  question  that  even  the 
association  officers  do  hot  care  to  dis- 
cuss. They  hope  that  he  will  recognize 
th^m  to  this  extent.  They  state  positively 
that  If  he  does  not,  there  can  be  no  settle- 
ment of  the  strike  at  this  time.  All  day 
the  Executive  Board  sat  and  waltM  for  a 
reply.  On  Wednesday  the  same  thing  waa 
done.  Mr.  Morgan's  silence  is  regarded  .by 
some  as  significant  and  ominous.  Others 
profess  to  believe  that  he  is  in  constiltatlon 
with  other  officials  of  the  United  States 
Steel  Corporation,  and  will  answer  shortly, 
The  secretlveness.  which  has  character- 
ized the  preceding  meetings  of  the.bqard 
was  continued  to-day.  The  tnemberr  of  the 
Executive  Board  gathered  earljr  In  the 
morning  and  remained  In  the  conference 
room  of  Vne  headquarters  all  day,  with  the 
exceptioh  of  a  brief  luncheon  hour.  There 
were  the  same  guards  placed  outside  of  the 
ofTlces,  atid  newspaper  men  were  >kept 
bask  ^rom  all  approaches  to  the  meeting 
room.  At  4  o'clock  in  the  aftem6pn  Presi- 
dent Shaffer,  acting  on  behalf  of  the  hoard, 
sent  word  to  the  newspaper  men  that  there 
would  be  no  statement  given  out\for  publi- 
cation to-day,  and  that  there  would  be  a 
meeting  of  the  board,  to-morrow  at  10 
•A.  M.  to  consider  matters  Tjefore  it.  The 
meeting  did  not  adjourn  at  this  hpur,  how- 
ever, but  remained  in  session  until  nearly 
0  o'clock. 


During  the  afternoon  Joseph  Bishop  of 
ae  Board  ofc Arbitration .  of  Ohio  was  pres- 
ent for  some  time.    Ex-Prealdent  if.  M. 


Garland  of  the  association  iTak  also  in  the 
offices  for  a  time,  but  both  of  these  men 
left  early.  Thsy  declined  to  discuss  the 
situation  in  any  form,  except  to  say  that 
they  did  not  know  what  the  probabilities 
were  for  a  settleinent. 

There  were  many  rupiors  in  the  strikers' 
circles  to-day.  Among  those  Interesting 
them,  the  moat  were  that  the  American 
Sheet  Steel  Company  waa  preparing  to 
hrtng  a  large  number.,  of  non-union  men 
from  the  South  to  take  their  places,  \ 
that  the  officials  of  the  Demmier  Tin  Mil 
were  preparing  to  break  the  strike  at  tkat 
point.  Every  avenuo  of  approach  to  these 
(nills  Is  being  eSiTefuIly  watched  by  the 
strikers,  suidwiot  ttie  sthallest  loophole  is 
belng\left  unguarded.

STRIKERS' DEMANDS  REFUSED? 

Pittsburg  Newspaper  Reports  that  J.  P. 
Morgan  Has  Replied,  Declining 
to  Reopen  Negotiations. 

PITTSBURG,  Aug.  1.— The  Commercial 
Gazette  to-morrow  ■will  say:  " 

'  The  Amalgamated  Executive  Board 
last  evening  received  by  telegraph  a.,  flat 
refusal  from  J.  Pierpbnt  Morgan  to  reopen 
the  wage  conference  where  it  was  broken 
off  at  the  Hotel  Lincoln  nearly  three  weeks 
ago.  The  powers  of  the  steel  combih'e  in- 
sist in  this  communication  that  the  only 
basis  of  settlement  will  be  on.  the  terms 
which  the  financial  backer  of  the  combine, 
Pre^dent  C.  M.  '  Schwab,  and  Chairman 
Elbert  H.  Gary  laid 'down  at  the  meeting 
with  the  Amalgamated  executive  in  New 
York  last  Saturday. 

"  A  member  of  the  Exeoutive  Board  of 
the  association  last  night  said:  'These 
terms  are  denominated  by  those  who  have 
the  best  intertets  of  the  organization  of 
steel  workers  at  heart,  as  the  most  unfair, 
the  most  unjust  ever  proposed  to  any  body 
dt  workingmen  by  a  set  of  employers  or  a 
corporation.'  The  terms  are  such  that  the 
Executive  Board  of  the  Amalgamated  As- 
sociation cannot  accept,  and  has  already 
gone  on  record  to  that  effect.' 

"  To-morrow  morning  the  answer  of  Mr. 
Morgan  is  expected  by  mall.  There  is 
scarcely  a  fragment  of  hope  that  the  Amal- 
gamated Association  will  back  down  from 
Its  well-known  position.  The  leaders  of 
the  workers  will,  in  reply,  outline  their 
plans  to  the  steel  corporatiou  for  a  con- 
tinuation of  the  great  struggle. 

♦They  will  include. the  stopping  of  every 
wheel  possible  in  the  works  of  the  com- 
bine and  the  extension  of  the  strike  in  all 
possible  directions  by  the  Amalgamated 
Association.  To-day  may  develop  much, 
but  if  the  combine  cannot  be  made  to 
waver  tbrough  the  Influences  that  will  be 
brought  to  bear,  the  great  conflict  will 
probably  be  fought  to  the  bitter  end.'.'

•PITTSBURG.  Aug.  l.-A  WellsvIUe,  Ohio, 
dispatch'  says  the  strikers  captured  a  sup-

took  him  to  their  camp.  As  he  was  unable 
to  give  a  satisfactory  account  of  himself 
he  wa%  ducked  in  tStp  Ohio  River,  and  then 
notified  to'  leave  town. 

The  same  number  of  mills  are  In  opera- 
tion to-day  as  last  week.  Four  more  men 
reported  for  work  t»>day  and  it  is  claimed 
by  those  in  position  to  know  that  many  of 
the  old  men  will  return  to  work  next  week, 
whether  a  settlement  be  effected  or  not.

MARINE  ENGINEERS'  DEMANDS. 

Coastwise   Steamship   Companies  Re^ 
quired  to^Agree  io  an  Increased 
Scale  of  'W^ges. 

A  general  demand  by  the  Marine  Engi- 
neers' Beneficial  Association  of  New  Tork 
on  aU  the  coastwise  steamship  companies 
in  this  port  has  been  made  for  an  Increased 
scale  of  wages,-  to  go  into  effect  this  week. 
If  the  programme  of  the  association  holds 
good,  coastwise  steamships  -will  not  be  al- 
lowed to  leave  port  unless  their  O'wners 
agree  to  pay  the  new  scale,  save  in  cases 
where  articles  have  been  already  signed. 
The  lines  affected  by  the  demand  include 
the  Ward,  Clyde,  Mallory,  Old  Dominion, 
Morgan,  and  Southern  Pacliftc. 

The  wages  demanded  are  as  follows: 
First-class  steamships,  of  2.600  toils  and 
over.  Chief  Engineers,  $150;  First  As- 
sistant, $90;  Second  Assistant,  ?80;  Third 
Assistant,  $70;  second-class  steamships, 
over  1,200  tons  and  under  "2,500  tons.  Chief" 
Engineer,  $135;  First  Assistant,  fSO;  Sec- 
ond Aagiatant,  $70;  Third  Assistant,  $60.  A 
circular  letter  containing  the  demands  was 
mailed  to  every  coastwise  steamship  owner 
on  June  20.  No  attention  was  paid  to  it, 
and  the  demand  was  repeated  on  July  15. 
The  Marine  Engineers'  Benevolent  Asso- 
ciatibn  has  its  headquarters  In  Manhattan, 
and  its  officers  say  that  all  competent  en- 
gineers on  the  coaatwise  steamships  belong 
to  It 

Superlntetident  of  Engineers  Thomas  Hall 
of  the  Mallory  Line  said  yesterday  that,  in 
all  probability,  the  owners  of  coastwise 
steamships,  unless  in  cases  hvhere  articles 
were  already  signed,  would  have  to  grant 
the  new  demands.  The  owners  ooiild  not 
afford  to  let  their  business- wait. 

Superintendent  Walsh  of  the  Ward  Line 
said  tliat  the  Santiago  of  that  line  was 
scheduled  to  leave  at  once,  but  thait  her 
articles  were  signed  several  days  ago.  The 
Morro  Castle  of  the  same  company  is  to 
sail  to-morrow.  v 
'  The  boats  of  the  Old  Dominion  line  leave 
every  day.

BOERS  MURDERING  NATIVES 


Kitchener  Tells  of  the  Killing  of 
Scouts  in  Cold  Blood. 


BRITISH  SOLDIER  ALSO  SHOT 


Kritzlnger,  Sends  Word  that  He  Will 
Kilr  All  Natives  In  a-itish  Employ, 
Whether  Armed  ^pr  Unarmed. 

LONDON.  Aug.  2.— A  dispatch  from  Lord 
Kitchener,  dated  at  Pretoria  yesterday, 
says: 

"  On  July  28  an  officer's  patrol  of  twenty 
Teomanry  and  some  native  scouts  followed 
two  carts  and  a  few  Boers  fifteen  miles 
from  the  railway  at  Doorn  River,  Orange 
River  ColonV.  They  were  cut  off  by  200 
Boers,  and,  after  defending  themselves  In 
a  small  building-,  they  surrendered  .when 
their  ammunition  was  exhausted.  Three 
Yeomen  were  wounded. 

'•'  After  the  surrender  the  Boers  -made  the 
native  scouts  throw  their  hands  up,  and 
shot  them  in  cold  blood.  They  afterward 
shot  a  wounded  Yeoman.  The  remainder 
were  released. 

"-TiiS^oers  gave  as  a  reason  for  shoot- 
ing the  Yeoman  that  they  thought  he  was 
p  '  Cape  boy.'  .  Evidence  on  oath  has  been 
taken  of  the  murders." 

Another  dispatch  from  Lard  Kitchener, 
alio  dated  yesterday?  says: 

"French  reports  that  he  has  received  a 
letter  from  Kritzinger,  one  of  the  Boer 
Commanders,  announcing  his  Intention  to 
shoot  all-  natives  in  British  employ,  wheth- 
er armed  or  unarmed.  Many  cases  of  cold 
blooded  murder  of  natives  in  Cape  Colony 
have-  recently  occurred." 


:G0ST  of  the  BOER  WAR. 


Sireat  Britain  Spent  £1,250,000  a  Week 
in  the  Month  Just  Ended. 

LONDON,  Aug.  2.— In  the  Housp  of  Com- 
mons yesterday  Lord  Stanley,  the  Firiapi 
cial  Secretary  __of  the  War  Office,  repiylnlr 
to  a  question,  said  the  cost  of  the  war  in 
South  Africa  from  April  1  to  July  31  was 
£35,750,000,  partly  chargeable  against  the 
deficit  of  last  year.  The  actual  cost  in  July 
was  £1.250,000  weekly.  The  statement  was 
greeted  with  Ironical  Irisli  cheers. 

The  Chancellor  of  the  ^Exchequer,  Sir 
Michael  Hicks-Beach,  said  if  the  war  con- 
tinued at  the  same  cost  for  the  next  three 
months  It  would  nece^itate  spending  the 
whole  o*^  the  reserve  he  had  provided  for 
financing  the  third  quarter,  b^t  he  had  rea-

>VOUNDSJN  MODERN  WARFARE. 

sir  William  MacCormac  Says  They  Are 
Less  Frequent  and  Less  Severe 

thf  n  Thirty  Years  Ago. 

LONDON,  Aug.  ,1.— The  President  of  the 
Royal  College  of  Surgeons)  Sir'  William 
MacConnac,  read  a  paper  to-day  before 
the  British  Medical  Association,  now  In 
session  at  Cheltenham. 

Sir  William  pointed  out  that  the  char- 
acter of  gunshot  wounds  had  completely 
changed  since  his  experiences  in  the 
Franco-Prussian  war,  (when  he  was  Sur- 
geon in  Chief  of  the  Anglo-American  Am- 
bulance.) Not  only  was  the  severity  of 
the  wounds  diminished,  but  they  were  also 
leas  frequent.  The  improvements  made  in 
weapons,  therefore,  did  not  render  the 
prosecution  of  war  more  difficult,  as  con- 
tended fn  same  quarters.  Only  6  per  cent, 
of  the  wounded  died. 

With  reference  to  the  charges  made 
-  against  the  army  hospital  service  tb  South 
Africa,  by  William  L.  Ashmead  Bartlett 
Burdett-Coutts,  M.  P.,  Sir  William  said 
Mr.  Burdett-Coutts  had  qo  idea  of  per- 
spective and  exaggerated  everything.

rived here  to-day  with  more  Boer  prison- 
ers. Martial  law  has  been'  proclaimed  on 
Tucker's  and  Morgan's  Islands,  where  the' 
Boer  prisoners  are  confined. 


DAILY  MAIL  BOYCOn  ENDED. 

.Contest  Between  the  Newspaper  and 
the  War  Office  Results  In  a  Vic- 
tory for  the  Former. 

lONDON,  Aug.  2.— The  contest  between 
tbe  War  O^ce  and  The  Dally  Mall  has 
ended  In  a  victory  for  the  paper.  The  War 
Ofrib*  had  not  only  cut  off  The  Daily 
'ilall'a  South  African  casualty  lists  and 
other  official  news,  but  had  also  ordered 
tha-  various  news  agencies  not  to  supply 
to  the  pat>er  any  official  information  dis- 
tributed from  the  War  Office. 

Thereupon  The  Dally  Mall  sued  the  news 
agencies  imder  Its  contracts  to  coms^el 
them  to  deliver  the  news. 

The  War  Office  then  held  back  bulletins 
until  near  tbe  hour  for  the  morning  papers 
to  go  to  press.  -This  raised  a  storm  of 

Srotest  from  the  provincial  paters,  and 
le  War  Office  finally  capitulated  and 
called  off  the  boycott. 

The  experiment  at  press  gagging  aroused 
bitter  criticism  among  all  classes  of  pa- 
pers at  a  time  when  the  Government  v  as 
jiot  too  popular  and  could  ill  afford  .to  ag- 
gravate popular  discontent.  Mr.  Brod- 
rick's  personal  bereavement  in  the  death 
of  his  -wife  precludes  a  journalistic  cele- 
bration of  his  defeat,  but  there  is  much 
quiet  satisfaction  in  Fleet  Street  over  the 
ireault.

Germany's  proceedings  in  Vn.e  South  Pa-

belong  to  (^eat  Britain. 

EULOGIZES  MR.  McKINLEY> 

Ambassador  Camion-  Siays   He   Is  a 
Clever  Diplomatist  and  an  Ac- 
complished Gentleman. 

PARIS,  Aug.  1.— The  French  Ambassador 
to  the  United  States,  Jules  Cambon,  who 
is  now  in  tills  city.  In  an  Interview  pub- 
lished to-day  pays  k  warm  tribute  to  Presi- 
dent McKlnley,  whom  he  describes  as  a 
superior  man,  a  clever  diplomatist,  and  an 
accomplished  gentleman. 

The  Ambassador  praised  the  correct  atti- 
tude of  the  press  toward  the  President, 
and,  answering  a  question  regarding  the 
President's  share  in  bringing  about  the 
conclusion  of  peace  between  Spain  and  the 
United  States,  he  said  MTr-MfKinley  chief- 
ly sought  not  to  hurt  the  feelings  of  either 
side.    M.  Cambori  added: 

"  We  must  admit  that  he  [Mr.  McKlnley] 
was  greatly  aided  in  his  task  by  the  good 
will  of  the  Americans,  who  had  no  reason 
to  continue  the  war,  while  the  Spaniards 
were  anxious  for  its  conclusion." 

M.  Cambon  was  also  questioned  regarding 
the  situation  in  the  Philippines.  He  said 
he  thought  the  pacification  of  the  Islands 
was  very  near;  the  capture  of  Agulnaldo 
had  ended  the  greatest  difficulty. 

In  the  course  of  his  remarks  the  Am- 
bassador eulogized  West  Point  as  a  "  nurs- 
ery which  is  apeparing  for  the  United 
States  Incompaifrtjle  chiefs." 

Regarding  the  temperance  question,  M. 
Cambon  said: 

"  There  may  be  some  hypocrites,  but  the 
vast  majority  of  Americans  abstain  from 
strong  drink,  to  the  great  advantage  of  the 
race,  which,  for  a  time,  threatened  to  lapse 
into  drunkenness." 

The  Ambassador  also  said  that  the  adop- 
tion of  the  reciproblty  treaty  now  before 
the  Goverhments  Of  the  United  States  and 
France  would  draw  closer  ttie  commercial 
ties  uniting  the -two  countries.  ,

DEFENDS  THE  CHINESE. 


Bishop  Moore  Says  that  with  Less  Provo- 
cation Americans  Would  Have  Done 
a  Thousand  Times  as  Much. 

Special  to  The  New  York  Times. 

RK^HMOND,  Ind.,  Aug.  l.-Joseph  H. 
Moore  of  this  State  has  received  a  letter 
froqi  his  nephew.  Bishop  David  H.  Moore, 
now  in  China,  Bishop  Moore  was  sent  to 
Asia  as  the  representative  of  the  Methodist 
Church  to  make  a  thorough  Investigation 
into  rellgiou^,  moralr^nd  social  conditlotis. 
He  has  traveled^,(XX)  miles  through  the 
Chinese  Empire, 

The  churchmen  of  this  State,  who  have 
closely  followed  the  terrible  events  In  con- 
nection with  the  Boxer  troubles,  are  start- 
led by  Bishop  Moore's  words.   He  ^ays: 

"  Great  wrongs  the  Chinese  have  done, 
but  with  a  tenth  part  of  the  provbcatioa 
we  would  have  done  a  thousand  times 
more  and  greater." 

The  letter  also  Indicates  that  Bishop 
Moore's  report  to  the  church  will  be  along 
the  same  lines.  It  is  expected  that  the 
report  will  cause  a  sensation. 


BOXER  PLACARDS  IN  CANTON. 

CANTON,  Aug.  1.— 'Violent  anti-foreign 
placards,  emanating  from  the  Boxers,  have 
been  posted  In  the  vicinity  of  the  Christian 
chapels.  The  placards  protest  against  the 
imposition  of  the  house  tax,  saying  it  Is 
only  exacted  in  order  to  meet  the  in- 
demnity to  be  paid  to  the  powers,  and  pro- 
ceed: ,  ! 

'  If  money  can  be  obtained,  why  not 
make  war  on  the  foreigners  7  China  is  no* 
yet  defeated.  It  is  only  the  Government's 
eyes  which  are  blinded  by  disloyal  Minis- 
ters. If  we  refuse  to  figh^  then  It  Is  a 
case  ,  of  being  greeffy  to  llve.^  How  can  the 
carefully  studied  military  arts  be  used,  ex- 
cept against  foreigners?  How  can  we 
otherwise  employ  our  regiments?  During 
1900  much  money  was  collected  through 
lotteries,  gambling,  and  general  taxes.  But 
they  (the  foreigners)  were  never  'satisfied. 
Therefore,  should  the  house  tax  be  collect- 
ed, we  will  demolish  the  chapels  and  drive 
out  the  Christians.  If  the  Emperor  Is  un- 
able to  pay,  we,  Boxers,  have  an  excellent 
plan  to  gain  a  victory  over  the  foreigners. 
Unless  this  policy  is  adopted  a  great  re- 
bellion Is  certain." 


BATTLESHIP  GLORY  NOT^  ASHORE. 

Hongkong  Mystffied  by  the  Departure 
of  British  Warships. 

HONGKONG^  Aug.  1.— The  naval  authori- 
ties here  contradict  the  report  of  the 
stranding,  between  here  and  Shanghai,  of 
the  new  British  battleship  Glory,  flagship 
of  the  British  China  squadron. 

The  officials  refuse  to  furnish  any  in- 
formation regarding  the  sudden  departure 
from  this  port  of  the  British  warships 
Eclipse,  Daphne,  and  Pigmy.  They  state, 
however,  that  the  vessels  sailed  under  se- 
cret orders,  after  taking  on .  board  coal, 
ammunition,  and  provisions.  Many  ru- 
mors are  in  circulation  about  the  move- 
ments of  the  warships,  but  nothing  definite 
is  known. 

LONDON.  Aug.  2.— The  Admiralty  offi- 
cials say 'the  departure  of  the  three  war- 
ships from 'Hongkong  has  no  significance. 
They  sailed  in  the  ordinary  course  of  duty. 

The  battleship  Glory  is  not  ashore. 


Hamburg  Expects  Watdersee  Aug.  8. 

BERLIN,  Aug.  L— Hamburg  newspapers 
assert  that  Emperor  WUUam  and  Count 
von  Waldersee,  on  board  the  imperial  yacht 
Hohenzollem,  -will,  arrive  at  Hamburg  on 
Aug.  &  They  publish  the  programme  of 
the  celebrations  in  honor  of  the  Field  Mar- 
shal's return,  which  Include  an  elaborate 
reception  and  a  luncheon  In  the  Caty  Hall.

not  proceed  to  Brest,  as  reported  In  Paris. 


THE  ANARCHIST  GALLIOTTI. 


Man  Arrested  In  Switzerland  Not  Known 
to  Have  Tried  to  Kill  Anyone. 

BERNE,  Aug.  1.— An  investigation  of  the 
report,  published  In  the  United  States,  that 
the  anarchist,  Galllottl,  who  was;  arrested 
at  Vledlkon  on  Tuesday  night  by;  order  of 
the  Prosecutor  General,  is  charged  with 
being  'ionected  with  the  alleged  attempt 
on  the  life  of  Queen  Maria  Pia  at  Aix- 
les-Balns,  shows  th^t  there  Is  no  founda- 
tion for  the  story. 

The  Public  Prosecutor's  Office  is  author- 
ity for  the  statement  that  Galllottl  was  ar- 
rested for  disseminating  anarchistic  writ- 
ings in  Switzerland.  The  prisoner,  who 
was  born  In  1871  at  San  Sofia,  In  the  vi- 
cinity of  Florence,  Italy,  is  known  as  one 
of  the  most  fanatical  of  anarchists.  He 
has  undergone  several  terms  of  imprison- 
ment in  Italy,  but  there  is  no  record  of 
his  having  been  engaged  In  any  attempt 
at  assassination. .  ,

RANGIER,  Aug.  1.— Tjhiere  Is  no  founda- 
tion for  the  report  (contained  In  a  dispatch 
from  Tangier  in  The  Morning  Post  of  Lon- 
don, published  Tuesday,)  that  Kald  El 
Mehedi  el  Menebhi,  (Moroccan  Minister  of 
War.)  head  of  the  Special  Moroccan  Mis- 
sion to  London  and  Berlin,  had  been  ar- 
rested because  the  Sultan  disapproved  of 
the  concessions  he  granted  while  in  Eng- 
land and  of  his  expenditure  of  £^000,000  in 
London  And  BerUn. 


Maltese  Legislate^  Caused  Trouble. 

LONDON,  Aug.  1.— A  dispute  over  the 
language  question  in  Malta,  resulting  in 
obstruction- on  tbe  part  of  the  elected  mem- 
bers of  the  Maltese  Legislative  CounclL 
and  In  their  refusal  to  vote  money  sup- 
plies, has 'led  the  British  Government  to' 
determhie  to  le'^  the  -necessary  taxation 
order  in  (Sxecutlve)  Council.  Mr. 
Chamberlain,  the  Colonial  Secretary,  an- 
nounced this  decision  on  Jnljr  In.  a  dis- 
patch to  the  Governor  of  JuUta,  Geo.  Sir 
f^ands  W.  OrenfslL  - 


PORT  OP  SPAIN,  Trinidad,  Aug.  l.-The 
■Venezuelan  Minister  of  War  SefSor  J.  Pu- 
lido, who  is  ,  the  leader  of  an  Important 
political  party,  has  resigned,  according  to 
reports  Just  received  here,  after  a  violent 
scene  in  the  Cabinet,  during  wh^ch  the 
Minister  of  'War  refused  to  acc^-  the 
orders  of  President  Castro  to  recognize  the 
revolutionists  in  Colombia  as  belligerents, 
and  to  deliver  a  passport  to  Seiior  Rico,  the 
dolomblan  Minister.  Sefior  Pulido  denies 
that  the  invaders  of  Veneidelan  territory 
are  Colombians,  as  President  Castro  con- 
tends, BM  insists  that  they  are  revolution- 
ists. Sefior  Guerra  succeeds  Sefior  Pulido 
as  Minister  of  War. 

The  resignation  of  the  War  Minister  has 
caused  a  profound  Impression.  The  situ- 
ation Is  said  to  be  critical.  The  Govern- 
ment troops  have  been  defeated  in  their 
first  encounters  with  the  rebels  near  San 
Cristobal.  Other  uprisings  are  reported 
from  the  interior. 


According  to  cable  dispatches  received  on 
'Wednesday  from  Wlllemstad,  Island  of 
Curacao,  Gen.  Rangel  Calviras,  at  the  head 
of  5,000  men,  has  revolted  against  President 
Castro  of  Venezuela.  The  insurgents  wei'e 
near  San  Antonio  de  Tachira,  oh  the  Co- 
lombian frontier,  in^  which  direction  the 
Venezuelan  (Jovernment  had  sent  .10,000 
soldiers.  Dispatches  were  subsequently-  re- 
ceived In  this  city  from  official  circles  in 
Venezuela  announcing  the  rout  of  the 
rebels,  and  saying  that  Venezuela  was  at 
peace.   

WASHINGTOff,  Aflg.  1.— Seiior  Don  Au- 
gusto  F.  Pulido,  Charge  d' Affaires  of  the 
Venezuelan  Legation,  *o-day  received  a 
telegram  from  tne  Venezuelan  Consul  Gen- 
eral In  New  York,  E.  Gonzales  Esteves, 
confirming  the  report  that  the  5,000  rdvo- 
lutlonists  were  defeated  in  San  Cristobal 
on  July  29. 

The  break  In  the  Venezuelan  Cabinet 
caused  by  the  resignation  of  Sefior  Pulido, 
the  War  Minister,  and  "the  proposition  to 
deliver  his  passports  to  Senor  Rico,  the 
Colomb^yn  Slinister,  caused  considerable 
surpriscnere.  There  appears  to  be  some  in- 
consistency in  the  reports  ot  the  battle 
which  has  taken  place  neari  San  Cristobal 
between  the  Government  troops  and  the 
rebels,  the  dispatches  from  iPort  of  Spain 
declaring  that  the  Government  troops  sus- 
tained defeat  while  a  telegram  received  at 
the  Venezuelan  Legation  here  to-d&y  from 
Consul  General  Esteves  at  New  York  an- 
nounced the  defeat  of  the-  revolutionists. 

Sefior  Guerra,  who  succeeds  to  the  war 
portfolio,  IS  a  well-known  military  leader, 
and  has  been-  Adjutant  General  of  the 
Venezuelan  Army.  Sefior  Pulido,  the  retlr- 
ir.g  Minister,  is  an  uncle  of  Mr.  Pulido.  the 
Venezuelan  Charge  d' Affaires  in  Wash- 
ington. 


Castro  Cables  of  Victory.  " 

Venezuelan  Consul  General  B.  Gonzalez 
Esteves  announced  yesterday  that  he  had 
received  a  cablegram  from  President. Castro 
informing  him  that  5,000  men  of  the  Co- 
lombian forces  invading  Venezuela  hgl 
been  routed  and  almost  annihilated  at  Sin 
Cristobal,  a  small  town  on  the  western 
frontier.  Senor  Esteves  said  that  this  was 
the  second  decisive  victory  over  the  Invad- 
ers, whose  hopes,  he  believes,  must  now  be 
utterly  cFushed.  He  said,  however,  that 
Venezuela  would  keep  15,000  troops  on  the 
frontier  in  readiness  for  another  attempt 
at  invasion. 


APPRAISER  WAKEMAN^  REPLIES. 

■      ■  ■  '? 

Says  He  Acted  for  the  Good  of  the  Serv- 
ice in  Appointing  Men  Against 
Whom  Protests  Were  Made. 

W^\SHINGTON,  Aug.  l.-The  Secretary 
of  the  Treasury^ tb-day  received  the  answer 
of  V  llbUE  F.  'Wakeman,  Appraiser  of  the 
Port  of  New  York,  to  the  protest  recently 
filed  with  the  Secretary  by  a.  committee 
from  the  New  York  Board  of  Trade  and 
Transportation  against  certain  appoint- 
ments and  transfers  in  the  Appraiser's  de- 
partment. The  Protestants  alleged  that 
four  of  these  changes  and  appointments 
were  made,  not  only  in  violation  of  law, 
but  were  inimical  to  the  interests  of  both 
the  Government  and  the  importers. 

Mr.  'W'akeman,  in  his  answer,  calls  at- 
tention to  -the  fact  that  early  in  June  he 
visited  the  Treasury  Department  and  urged 
the  ippolntihent  of  four  additional  exper- 
ienced, examiners  upon  the  docks,  in  charge 
of  personal  baggage,  and  that  In  a  letter  to 
the  -lepartment,  written  soon  afterward,  he 
insisted  that  it  would  be  dangerous  to 
assi.Ern  inexperienced  mpn  to  this  work.  In 
repl;-  he  was  authorized  to  nominate  four 
additional  examiners  for  the  period  of  three 
months,  pending  the  establishment  of  a 
register  of  eligibies. 

Referring  to  the  four  particular  cases 
whi-:  h  were  brought  in  question  by  the  prp- 
test  ints,  Mr,  Wakeman  says  of  Mr.  Levy 
tha'  charges  are  now  pending  against  him 
and  that  his  removal  has  been  recom- 
mei  ded.  Levy,  he  says,  was  transferred 
to  he  docks  for  the  good  of  the  service 
has-  d  on  his  record  as  an  examiner.  He 
was  succeeded  by  F.  W.  MacDonald  who, 
Mr.  Wakeman  says,  has  had  large  exper- 
ienc  e  in  building,  and  in  consequence  is 
Ver;-  familiar  with  all  classes  of  glass, 
whi  2h  is  an  important  item  of  his  work. 
Mr.  Wakeman  says  he  considers  Mr.  MacDon- 
ald capable  of  filling  the  position  under 
thei  provisions  of  Section  2W  of  the  revised 
statutes. 

The  second  complaint  was  against  the 
tra:!3fer  of  Mr.  Harris  from  the  examina- 
tlors  of  china,  &c.,  to  the  dockd.-  The 
appraiser  says  he  had  been  repeatedly  re- 
quested by  the  assistant  apprai^  to  ttans- 
fer  Mr.  HarHs  to  some  other  portion  of  the 
work  because  of  his  carelessness.  He  was 
succeeded  by  John  J.  Groves,  who  received 
a  temporary  appointment  of  three  months. 
Although  protests  were  made  agaln'st  this 
appointment,  Mr.  Wakeman  says  Groves 
had  previously  served  four  years  as  an 
examiner,  and  since  going  out  of  the  service 
had  been  engaged  as  a  customs  broker  and 
was  familiar  with  practically  all  lines  of 
merchandise  handled  by  his  department. 

Another  case  is  that  of  Mr.  Michales, 
who,  Mr.  Wakeman  says,-  he  believes  to  be 
as  familiar  as  any  new  man  could  be  with 
the  lines  o£  merchandise  to  which  he  was 
a  assigned.  Concerning  the  case  of  Examiner 
Phelps,  who  was  transferred  from  the 
docks  to  the  s  division  of  dolls,  toys,  and 
musipal  instruments,  Mr.  Wakeman.  quotes 
from  the  report  of  Assistant  Apprallser 
Wardin,  in  which  he  says  in  effect  that 
because  of  Mr.  Phelps's  efficiency  he  is 
greatly  pleased  to  have  him  transferred  to 
his  division,  and  that  he  has  the  highest 
opinion  of  his  character  and  qualifications 
as  an  examiner. 

Mr.  Wakeman  strongly  Insists  that  his 
action  in  each  of  the  cases  brought  in 
question  was  within  the  law  and  clearly 
for  the  beileflt  of  the  service.  The  Secre- 
tary has  received  from  Mr.  Gustav  H. 
Schwab,  who  joined  in  the  original  protest, 
a  etter  withdrawing  his  complaint,  and 
stating  in  effect  that  he  now  believes  the 
ch  '.nges  made  by  Mr.  Wakeman  were  for 
thi  best  hsiterests  of  the  Government  and 
th'  importers.  Mr.  Schwab  is  chairman  of 
thi  Committee  on  Foreign  Commerce  and 
th>  Internal  Reven  'e  Laws  of  the  Chamber 
of  Commerce  of  the  State  of  New  York. 


FIGHTING   IN  COLOHBiA. 

Cohfllctlner '  Reports  as  to  Attack  on 
Tliree  Towns  by  Rebels. 

KINGSTON,  Jamaica,  Aug.  1.— The  Brit- 
ish steamship  Texan,  Capt.  Lund,  from 
Liverpool,  July  11,  for  this  port,  by  way  of 
Colon,  Colombia,,,  has  arrived  here,  and 
brings  confirmation  of  the  -reports  of  se- 
vere fighting  along  the  railroad  ten  miles 
out  of  Colon  on  Sunday  and  Monday  last. 
The  rebels  attacked  the  Government 
troops  with  determination  and  forced  the 
latter  back. 

When  the  steamer  left  there  was  great 
excitement  among  the  residents  of  Colon, 
who  were  leavihg  that  city  in  alarm.  The 
Colombian  Government  has  fouira  it  im- 
possible to  get  a  crew  for  theVjgunboat 
Namouna,  but  is  placing  guns  on  hSr.  Her 
English  and  American  crew  have  deserted 
to  a  man.  _____  | 

COLON.  Colombia,  via  Galveston,  Texas, 
Aug.  1.— The  report  that  the  rebels  have 
captured  three  towns  is  an  exaggeration. 
The  facts  are  ^is  follows: 

"  The  rebels  Friday,  Saturday,  and  Mon- 
day raided,  at  night  time,  Gatun,  Bohio, 
and  Bassblspo,  three  small  railway  stations 
without  military  protection,  toward  Colon, 
looting  the  Chinese  shops  of  provisions, 
clothing,  &c.,  and  kidnapping  several  per- 
sons, withdrawing  Immediately  afterward. 
One  woman  was  shot.  The  Government 
has  since  garrisoned  the  three  stations 
mentioned  and  is  pursuing  the  rebels  close- 
ly. Four  tra,ins  are!  crossing  the  road  dally 
as  usual."

German  Foreign  Office  Looks  for  an 
Amicable  Settlement.  . 

BERLIN,  Aug.  1.— With  reference  to  .the 
repfirted  forcible  removal  by  the  Colombian 
authorities  of  the.  Insurgent  Col.  Abel  Mu- 
rlllo  from  the  steamship  Allegheny,  flying 
the  German  flag,  at  Cartagena,  the  Ber-^ 
liner  Tageblatt  in'  the  course  of  an  inspired 
article  says: 

"  The  matter  has  already  been  submitted 
to  the  German  Foreign  Office,  which  does 
not  regard  the  information  on  the  subject 
conclusive,  and  awaits  further  reliable  re- 

gorts.  The  information  already  received, 
owever,  leads  the  Foreign  Office  to  beMeve 
that  the  whole  matter  wiU  be  amicably 
settled." 


WOUNDED,  WOULD  NOT  ULK. 

When  Bazzano  Started  to  TelJ  Who 
Shot  Him  Regd  Signaled ,  with 
Thumb  and  He  Stopped. 

Bruno  Bazzano,  twenty-s(x  years  old,  of 
13  Carroll  Street,  Brooklyn,  was  shot  at 
his  home  yesterday  morning  and  is  in  the- 
Long  Island  College  Hospital,  suffering 
from  what  Is  believed  to  be  a  mortal  wound 
In  the  abdbmen.  Angelo  Rego,  who  lives  in 
the  same  house  with  Bazzano,  was  arrested 
on  suspicion  .of  having  shot  Bazzano.  The 
shooting  occurred  during  a  quarrel  in  the 
house.  Bazzfino,  after  being  wounded,  ran 
out  of  the  house  and  down  the  street  for 
two  blocks.  He  fell  and  was  picked  up  by 
Capt.  O'Reilly  and  Detective  Reynolds  of 
the  Hamilton  Aventie  Police  Station,  who 
had  him  removed  to  the  hospital. 

The  police  made  an  investigation  and  ar- 
rested Rego.  No  pistol  was  found  upon 
the  prisoner  and  he  protested  stoutly  his 
Innocence.  Capt.  O'Reilly  took  Rego  to 
Bazzano's  bedside  for  identification.  The 
wounded  man  started  to  give  his  version 
of  tbe  affair  when  Rego,  it  Is  said,  raised 
one  of  his  thumbs  and  made  a  peculiar 
motion  with  it,  which  wab  seen  by  Baz- 
zano. The  latter  stopped  talking  suddenly 
and  could  not  be  induced  to  say  another 
word  about  the  shooting.  The  actions  of 
the  two  men  led  Capt.  O'Reilly  to  believe 
that  they  were  both  members  of  some 
secret  society. 

Rego  was  neld  for  examination  on  Mon- 
day, when  arraigned  later  in  the  Butler 
Street  Police  Court.

GRAFF-NEVINS  FAILURE. 

Mr.  Shevlin's  Counsel  Denies  that  His 
Client  and  Mr.  McCarty  Were 
.  Partners  In  the  Firm. 

In  the  schedule  of  assets  and  liabilities 
of  the  bankrupt  firm  of  C.  Edward  Graft 
&  Co.,  filed  on  Wednesday,  there  appeared 
among  the  list  of  debts  owing  to  the  firm 
this  Item,  without  any  further  explanation 
of  It:  , 

"  Thomas  F.-  Ifevlns,  James  Shevlln,  John 
Mccarty,  $227,052.56." 

K  has  been  inferred  from  tkls  that  Mr. 
Shevlln  and  ex-Senator  McCarty  were  co.; 
partners  in  the  concern,  This,  however, 
was-  denied  yesterday  by  Lawyer  Charles 
Hyde,  Mr.  Shevlin's  attorney,  who  spoke, 
for  both  Mr.  Shevlln  and  ex-Senator  Mc- 
Carty. who  are  out  of  town. 

"  I  have  examined  the  schedules  filed  by 
the  firm,"  said  Mr.  Hyde,  "  and  see  noth- 
ing in  them  to  justify  the  claim  that. Mes- 
srs. Shevlln  and  McCarty  are  co-partners. 
J  know  that  at  various  times  they  loaned 
money  to  the  firm  and  received  specific 
rates  of  Interest  upon  these  loans.  As  to 
the  claim  that  they,  with  Mr.  Nevins,  are

NEW  BOILER  EXPLODED. 

Was  In  an  Apartment  House  and  In- 
jured a  Porter  and  Frightened 
the  Residents. 

With  a  cra.sh  and  roar  yiat  jirere  heard 
tOT  blocks  around  a  brand-new  boiler  in 
the  Marion  apartment  house  at  St.  Nich- 
olas AvenCie  and  One  Hundred  and  l-'if- 
tc.ejith  Street  exploded  at  12:10  P.  M.  yes- 
terday. Williaip  Taylor,  colored,  thirty-" 
two  years  old,  a  porter  in  the  building, 
who  was  in  the  engine  room,  was  injured 
seriously,  and  the  twenty-six  families  who 
occupy  the  building  fled  to  the  strecjt  in 
terror,  there  to  be  Joined  by  crowds  of  ex- 
cited neighbors.  'The  crowd  soon  neairij- 
blocked./both  thoroughfares.  Charles  Miller, 
nineteen  years  old,  the  elevator  boy,  was 
in  the  elevator  with  Mrs.  Henrietta  Lip- 
son  and  her  daughter.  All  three  were 
thrown  to  the  floor  of  the  car,  but  escaped 
with,  bruises. 

The  building  Is  new  and  equipped  with 
the  most  modem  conveniences.  It  is  seven 
storie^  high,  and  has  a  frontage  of  100 
feet  on  botli  avenue  and  street.  It  con- 
tains stores  and  a  saloon.  Many  windows 
and  nearly  every  glass  In  the  saloon  were 
broken,  the  barroom  being  very  close  to 
the  boiler.  Some  one  turned  in  a  fire^ 
alarm,  and  two  atiibulances  were  called 
from  the  J.  Hood  Wright  Hospital,  for 
there  were  rumors  of  a  great  loss  of  life. 

Taylor,  the  colored  man;  however,  was 
the  only  person  who  had  to  be  removed. 
He  had  been  struck  by  flying  fragments 
of  the  boiler.  A  bolt  was  driven  deep  into 
one  of  his  legs.  Hi.""  condition  is  crjtical. 
The  boiler  h?d  only  been  put  into  position 
on  Wednesday.  It  is  supposed  that  the 
explosion  was  caused  by  the  water  being 
allowed  to  run  low  in  the  boiler  and  then 
a  supply  of  cold  water  being  suddenly 
turned  into  it  upon  the-  superheated  Ifon. 
The  total  damage  is  estimated  at  Jl.OCK).  The 
Marion  apartment  house  is  owned  by  the 
New  Tork  Building.  Banking  and  Loan

It.  prevents  loss  of  money  to  scores  of  manufacturers.  It  prevents  loss  of  time  to  thousands  of  workmen. 

It  saves  us  from  a  dull  store  month.  It  saves  you  many  extra  dollars  of  expenditure. 

The  weather-man  catered  handsomely  to  your  enthusiasm  yesterday.   The  cool,  delightful  relief  of  the  criisp  early 
morning  air  brought  out  so  many  eager  and  enthusiastic  buyers,  that  the  purchases  had  gone  up  into  the  thousands  of  dollars  before  the 
sale  was  an  hour  old.  '  '  •  ; 

Every  logical  reason  urges  you  t6  purchasing  Furniture  now — 
save  one:  That  is  the  inconvenient  time;  and  that  reason  is  the  keystone 
of  the  whole  August  movement -— the  necessary  stone  to  hold  the 
entire  structure  together. 

If  you  would  buy  furniture  regularly  at  this  season,  such  a 
movement  as  this  migh"  be  called  mercantile  idiocy. 

Your  disinclination  to  buy  in  August,  puts  us  to  work  to  present 
these  counter  conditions  to  make  you  eager  to  buy.

We  are  just  as  ^careful  in  buying  bargain  furniture  as  in  picking  for 
our  regular  stocks.  buy  from  the  same  reputable  concerns.  We 

never  touch  the  "cheap"  furniture  that  is  made  for  price-juggling.  Thare 
is  no  quality  risk  in  any  piece  of  furniture  in  the  sale. 

When  you  come  on  our  furniture  floor  you  will  see  only  such  a 
handsome  stock  as  any  of  the' best  stores  in  the  land  might  be  proud  of. 

There  is  no  suggestion  of  bargains"  in  either  the  appearance  or 
arrangement  of  the  pieces— no  rush,  hurry,  jumble,  or  excitement.  Care- 
ful and  efficient  salesmen  will  serve  you  in  the  same  satisfying  manner  as 
if  you  were  buying  at  regular  prices* 

You  Sacrifice  NotKing  for  the  Money  Saved 

You  choose  from  almost  lavish  variety.  You  pick  goods  of  the 
highest  character  in  style  and  workmanship.  You  are  served  with  courtesy 
and  care.  You_^elect  now  to  profit  by  the  pricewS;  but  have  your  goods  de-

Your  positive  saving  is  from  fifty  to  a  hundred  dollars  on  every 
hundred  dollars  that  you  spend^ — that  is,  you  get  furniture  worth  $150  to 
$200  for  $100  invested  now.  This  is  magnificent  economy  for  those  who 
l\ave  much  furnishing  to  do;  and  a  gratifying  saving  even  to  the  purcha^ser 
of  a  table  or  chair.
